Notes[edit]

  1. ^ In 2008, at the time of the census, Tiar-aleit was located in Northern Bahr el Ghazal State, Aweil South County. The data collected during the Fifth Population and Housing Census of Sudan were to be the primary source of information for decisions about the number and demarcation of electoral constituencies and administrative boundaries in what was then southern Sudan. South Sudanese officials rejected census results for southern Sudan.
