The Sudanese government and the rebel Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA) signed an agreement on wealth sharing Wednesday in Naivasha, Kenya.

The agreement covers the division of oil and non-oil revenue, the management of oil sector, and the monetary authority in the country, according to the agreement.

Wealth sharing, along with power sharing and the three disputedareas, are the three major outstanding issues in the Sudan peace talks process.

The Sudanese civil war started as the SPLA took up arms fighting for self-determination in the southern part of the country in 1983.

The conflict has left some 2 million people dead, mostly through war-induced famine and diseases.
