Idi Amin started one war, and threatened to start another.
In 1976 he declared that parts of southern Sudan, west, and southern Kenya were historically Ugandan; however an immediate declaration by Kenya that they would repel any invasion "aggressively" stopped Amin from further action.
However in November 1978, Amin ordered his army to invade neighboring Tanzania, as he launched the Ugandan-Tanzanian War. This war proved his downfall, as the Tanzanian Army beat back the Ugandans and upon entering Uganda in 1979, the local population rose with the Tanzanian Army against Amin.
Amin then fled the country. He was finally granted refuge in Saudi Arabia, where he died in 2003.
