What?
Syrian Civil War
Began in 2011, when the people of Syria weren't happy with the new president-Bashar Al-assad.
The family had been in control for 30 years and the people wanted a new government. this is similar to that of 1917 Revolution. However, the president reacted very differently.
After some teenagers graffitied something offensive about the government on a wall, they were arrested and then later killed.
The unfair killing of these people started unrest and fighting within the country.
When?
2011 and still ongoing
Who?
Syria mainly - as it began as a Civil war. There was untrained and poorly orgainsed militia that got together to rebel against the government. Later on extremists began to join them as they were well trained, well armed. This meant that the fighting worsened and the reason for the war changed.
