The Pari (also spelled Paeri) are an ethnic group in South Sudan.
Pari oral history says the people migrated from the north and west to Lafon County in Eastern Equatoria, where they lived in six villages at the foot of Lipul Hill (Jebel Lafon).
As well as growing crops such as sorghum and keeping cattle, goats and sheep, they hunted and fished.
[1] When the Second Sudanese Civil War began, many Pari joined the Sudan People's Liberation Army/Movement, and many were killed.
One of the prominent leaders who led the county is Colonel Thomas Udwar Augustino.
