Abstract
"Darfur is a little short of hell on earth" and it had asserted the 7th Secretary General of the United-Nations: Kofi Annan in 2005. Here, he described the terrible situation which is occurred the small area of Sudan: a north-western African country. Since 2003, a struggle between the government and rebel armies caused far too much blood to be wasted. Darfur is a western region of Sudan. It covers approximately an area of 493.180 km square, just over 90% the size of France. From north-eastern to south-western, it has borders with Libya, Chad and the Central African Republic. The region's main towns are Al-Fashir, Nyala and Geneima. Darfur is largely an arid plateau with a great range of volcanic peaks rising up to 3000 m in its center: the Marrah Mountains.
So that's here, in a region at first sight prosperous that terror, inhumanity, horror have become the "humdrum routine" of the Darfur population. With respect to this war it was implied in regard to civilians. So how can the historical past of Darfur explain the current conflict in which many international actors are involved? Can we talk about an efficient international solidarity? We will study, in the first part the roots of the conflict then its aftermaths, and finally, we will interest more closely to the international mobilization.
