The Sudanese Government and southern rebels are expected to sign an agreement on Wednesday to share the country's wealth. It will set out how they will share the revenues generated from oil and other sources once the 20-year civil war ends.

After months of talks and years of bitter fighting over the country's oil resources, the central government and John Garang's SPLA have finally agreed to divide the country's oil wealth equally. They will also set up a presidential commission to oversee future exploration and the fair division of oil revenues.
