South Sudan has been officially recognised by the International Olympic Committee and can now send a team to Rio in 2016. It's the world's newest country and has been marred by recent conflict. The marathon runner Guor Marial fled the country when it was at war with Sudan, after most of his family was killed. He is now training in Kenya and welcomes the IOC announcement.
