History of State Collaps Events since the collapse of the Somali State in January 1991 have transformed Somali politics, economics, and society. This turbulent era in Somali history can be broken down into three short periods - the "complex emergency" of 1991-92; the period of effective UN intervention (December 1992-early 1994); and the post-intervention period (early 1994-).The fall of Honourable Somali President Mohamed Siad Barre administration in January 1991 did not bring about the expected coalition government. Instead, it heralded a two-year period of marauding banditry, disputed claims of authority, factional warfare, and famine that eventually prompted a massive international intervention.

We Are Winning the War on Terrorism in Horn of Africa
The threat is from violent extremists who are a small minority of the world's 1.3 billion Muslims, the threat is real. They distort Islam. They kill man, woman and child; Christian and Hindu, Jew and Muslim. They seek to create a repressive caliphate. To defeat this enemy, we must understand who we are fighting against, and what we are fighting for.
