Southern Sudan has a very tropical climate with lots of rain and humidity. Not much is worse then the jungle.

I guess that is a personal choice. Having spent a good bit of time playing games with the NVA in the paddies, mountains & jungles of Vietnam, I would choose that over Falujah or Kandahar Province.

Anyway, that part of South Sudan gets between 30 and 40 inches of rainfall, except for the far SW corner that can get up to 60 inches.

I know northern Uganda. It is savannah. The few mountains have some forest.

I spent a while flying a helicopter in southern Sudan, from the White Nile west to the CAR border and from Khartoum south to Adok, about 200 miles north of Juba. Except for the papyrus swamps either side of the White Nile, it is all savannah with clumps of bush. Greener and flatter than Northern Uganda, but not jungle.

Google Earth shows the area south of there to the Uganda border as being very similar.

I yield the floor to you for the last word.

(otherwise, I could be accused of starting a p*****g contest)

What is there that you are so anxious to sacrifice Americans for?
