Bentiu is the capital of Unity State in South Sudan, on the southern bank of the Bahr el Ghazal River in the Greater Upper Nile region. It is a frontier oil town rebuilding after repeated cycles of war, ethnic violence, and catastrophic flooding, and it sits at the heart of one of the most severe ongoing humanitarian crises in the world.
Malakal was a city in South Sudan. Largely destroyed during fighting between 2011-2015, relatively little remains other than looted and vandalised ruins, very limited infrastructure and a 45,000 person strong United Nations refugee camp northeast of the former city.
Boma National Park is in the Greater Upper Nile region of South Sudan. It's listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site together with Bandingilo National Park.
