Torit is the capital of Eastern Equatoria State in South Sudan, located about 150 kilometers east of Juba near the Imatong Mountains. The town has a population around 20,000 and is known for its agricultural activity, coffee plantations, and the nearby Imatong Forest Reserve, which is home to diverse wildlife.
Torit experiences a tropical climate with a distinct rainy season from April to October and houses significant historical importance as the site of the 1955 Torit Mutiny that triggered the First Sudanese Civil War.
