Best Answer

Undertaking marine warfare without government approval is usually defined as piracy. Somalia has been identified as the origin of pirates in recent years. The description of the country has been that of a political void ever since warlords overruled the government establishment efforts. Somalia is currently undergoing a Wild West period of lawlessness. Muslim related terrorists also battle for control of the country with further terrorist campaigns progressing into Africa. Somalia refugees receive an enormous amount of support worldwide.
