The Sudd (southern part)

Sudan / Bahhr-al-Jabal / Juba /
 wetland, region

A vast swamp on the While Nile, too large to be allowed by Wikimapia as a single region, but on the order of 500 km long (N to S) and 300 km wide at its widest point. Many crocodiles, or so I have heard from natives of the area who were refugees in Tanzania in the 1960s. I have marked the northern end with another box.
