Summary edit

Description
English: Juba, South Sudan – the world's newest capital city – is featured in this image photographed by an Expedition 30 crew member on the International Space Station.
  • Almost one year ago, on July 9, 2011, the Republic of South Sudan became the newest nation in the world, six months after its declaration of independence from Sudan. Juba, a port city (center) on the White Nile, is the capital of the new nation (although the capital will be moved in the future to a more central location) and is one of the fastest growing cities in the world.
  • Juba's population is uncertain, but is estimated to be roughly 350,000–400,000 having doubled in size since 2005, when a peace agreement was signed ending the civil war in Sudan. Both hopeful immigrants and returning residents have created the population surge. The city hosts the Juba Game Reserve, a protected area of savannah and woodlands that is home to key bird species.
