Link: http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/row/R41900.pdf
From the Congressional Research Service via the Federation of American Scientists:
"South Sudan faces serious challenges in the coming years. There are a number of unresolved issues between the governments of Sudan and South Sudan, which could pose a serious threat to peace and stability in both countries. South Sudan lacks the capacity to deliver basic services to its people and demands are likely to increase in the coming years. There are also a number of new rebellions, often backed by the government in Khartoum, against the Government of Southern Sudan (GOSS)."
