In 1884, Otto von Bismarck, the German chancellor, brought the plenipotentiaries of all major powers of Europe together, to deal with Africa's colonization in such a manner as to avoid provocation of war. This event—known as the Berlin Conference of 1884-1885—galvanized a phenomenon that came to be known as the Scramble for Africa.

*Rated 5 Stars by Reader's Favorite* A decision to go wild for Christmas. An attempt to forget the pain. Finding out that her dead husband had a mistress, drove home the fact that they were not the happy couple Savannah a/k/a Souvenir thought they were.

La situazione libica dopo la caduta dello storico governo autoritario di Gheddafi e le nuove primavere arabe è ancora incerta e caotica. I blandi tentativi della coalizione internazionale di pacificare la regione, così come la sua incerta strategia di alleanze, si scontrano tutt'oggi con l'evidente impossibilità di determinare dall'esterno le sorti di un conflitto ormai esploso su larga scala e determinato da interessi strategici ed economici di portata globale.

Il conflitto siriano ha avuto inizio il 15 marzo 2011 in Siria con le prime dimostrazioni pubbliche contro il governo centrale, parte del contesto più ampio della primavera araba, per poi svilupparsi in rivolte su scala nazionale e quindi in una guerra civile nel 2012; il conflitto è ancora in corso.

Le proteste hanno come obiettivo la destituzione del presidente Bashar al-Assad ed eliminare la struttura dittatoriale che sottomette da anni il Paese.

Come aveva potuto il tradizionale dualismo della società ruandese - gli Hutu agricoltori, i Tutsi allevatori - trasformarsi in una macchina di odio e di annientamento, in una guerra civile e poi in genocidio?
