Wau

Wau

Wau is a town located east of South Sudan and on the west side of the Jur river. It is the capital of the Western Bar el Gazal state in South Sudan. Originally built as a slave quarry in the 19th century, it became an administrative center during the time of the Anglo-Egyptian condominium in Sudan. Wau is culturally, ethnically and linguistically a mixed village. During the Second Sudanese Civil War it was one of the government-protected villages, hosting many battles in the spring of 1998. Wau is also the birthplace of NBA players Luol Deng and Deng Gai and the British model Alek Wek. The infrastructure of the city is in precarious conditions. In 2005 none of the streets were asphalted and today there is only one concrete bridge, the Wau Bridge, which crosses the Jur river. The city's airport has a dirt track. Wau es un pueblo situado al este de Sudán del Sur y en el costado oeste del río Jur. Es la capital del estado de Bar el Gazal Occidental en Sudán del Sur. Construido inicialmente como una zariba por esclavos en el siglo XIX, se convirtió en un centro administrativo durante la época de condominio anglo-egipcio en Sudán. Wau es cultural, étnica y lingüísticamente un pueblo mixto. Durante la Segunda Guerra Civil Sudanesa fue uno de los pueblos protegidos por el gobierno, siendo escenario de numerosas batallas en la primavera de 1998. Wau es también el lugar de nacimiento de los jugadores de la NBA Luol Deng y Deng Gai y de la modelo británica Alek Wek. La infraestructura de la ciudad está en precarias condiciones. En 2005 ninguna de las calles estaba asfaltada y hoy en día sólo existe un puente de hormigón, el Puente Wau, que atraviesa el río Jur. El aeropuerto de la ciudad tiene una pista de tierra.
