current	03:20, 21 December 2012	1,357 × 628 (81 KB)	Spacepotato	Revert to the version of 14 Jan, since in the current version of the UN geographic classification scheme, http://unstats.un.org/unsd/methods/m49/m49regin.htm , South Sudan has been placed in Eastern Africa.
	08:36, 24 January 2012	1,357 × 628 (60 KB)	Quintucket	Does it make sense to include South Sudan in East Africa? Yes. Does the United Nations usually do things on the ground that they make sense? No. For now, at least South Sudan is "North Africa" as far as the UN is concerned.
