SOMALIA-UNREST-HISTORY-FILES


(FILES) -- A file photo taken on January 30, 1991 shows a group of Somali rebels raising their arms up and smiling to express their victory in Mogadishu, Somalia, after rebel troops of the Somali United Congress (USC) took control of Mogadishu, following a three-week long war with Siad Barre's troops. On the 20th anniversary of president Mohamed Siad Barre's ouster that triggered Somalia's descent into chaos and one of Africa's longest civil wars, prospects for peace remain slim, analysts said. The Horn of Africa country is now best known to the outside world for being the place that inspired the Hollywood war movie "Black Hawk Down" and the reason the term "failed state" was coined.
