Derived from system type and role classification
South Sudan is organized as a federal system, dividing political authority between a national government and constituent regions. This structure allows significant regional autonomy while maintaining unified national policy on defense, trade, and foreign affairs.
South Sudan — federal republic, located in Africa, with approximately 12.6 million people — is a sovereign state governed from Juba.
As a federal republic, South Sudan divides power between the centre and its states or regions. That matters politically because national decisions are often negotiated again at the regional level rather than simply imposed from the capital.
South Sudan's political landscape includes 15 political parties and 1 office.
