Kapoeta East County is an administrative region of Eastern Equatoria state in South Sudan, bordered by Kenya to the south, Ethiopia to the east and Jonglei state to the west. It is part of the Greater Kapoeta region of the state. The largest ethnic group is the Toposa people. The principal town is Narus. The county includes the disputed Ilemi triangle, controlled by Kenya. The emblem of the county is a horned bull, with big humps and a large tail. ==Location== Most of the county is covered by undulating plain. Average rainfall is less than annually. Vegetation consists of thorny scrub and areas of open grassland. To the east of the plains the Eastern Uplands run along the Ethiopean border.〔 The county is administratively divided into the Natinga, Narus, Mogos, Jie, Kauto, Naita hills and Katodori ''payams''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Catholic Diocese of Torit )〕 Jie Payam is located in the extreme northwest corner of the county, home of the minority tribe of Jie people. This ''payam'' has been cut off from its neighbors for years. It has no sustainable water, and all attempts to drill boreholes have failed. In the past the whole community has migrated to the Buma area of Jonglei state in search of water, resulting in violent conflict with neighboring communities. Kabekenyang/Natinga ''payam'' includes the villages of Natinga and Kabekenyan. Narus payam includes Narus and Nadapal.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Kapoeta East County, Eastern Equatoria State )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kapoeta East County」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
