What happened in the Liberia revolution?

Answer 1

The Liberia Revolution, often referenced in the context of the First Liberian Civil War (1989-1997), was a conflict marked by political instability and ethnic tensions following years of autocratic rule. It began when Charles Taylor led a rebel group, the National Patriotic Front of Liberia (NPFL), in an uprising against President Samuel Doe’s regime. The war resulted in widespread violence, human rights abuses, and the eventual overthrow of Doe, leading to a power vacuum and further conflicts among various factions. The war ended with a peace agreement in 1997, but it left a lasting impact on Liberia's social and political landscape.
