The people of Southern Sudan have voted to secede and form a new country after years of civil war. It looks like the people of Africa are looking for some change, hope it works out for them.

Wow awesome. I've never seen the formation of a new country...
I wonder how many books & maps are going to have to be revised because of this.
Have they drawn the boarders yet?

Of course you did. Several times. In 2008, Abkhazia and South Ossetia have become new countries. In the 90s, Yougoslavia was turned into several countries.

It happens more often than we think.

Good news for the Sudanese people... hopefully this end the civil war.

Many newly created "countries" are not recognized by much of the global community.
