Bor is the capital of Jonglei State in the Republic of South Sudan. The town of Bor is located in Bor County, Jonglei State, in central South Sudan, approximately 190 kilometres (120 mi), by road, north of Juba, the capital and largest city in that country. The town is located on the east bank of the White Nile.
Bor is of historical importance to the people of South Sudan. It was in Malek, a small settlement, about 19 kilometres (12 mi)}, south of Bor that the first modern Christian mission in present-day South Sudan was established by Archibald Shaw in December 1905. Bor became the first area to host a Church Missionary Society station in 1905.
Malek was turned into a Missionary stronghold in the Upper Nile Region. Shaw opened the first primary school in Malek. This school produced the first indigenous Anglican bishop to be consecrated in Dinkaland, His lordship Daniel Deng Atong, followed the Nikonora Achiek Deng Ariir. John Aruor became the first legend to be baptized in 1916 in Bor.
