Certainly, there have been numerous terrorist groups throughout European History.

Probably the most famous and persistent of these groups was the Irish Republican Army. This group was campaigning for the liberation of Ireland (especially the counties of Ulster) through the use of assassinations of public officials, car bombs, public incitement, and wanton aggression. Thankfully, the IRA is no longer active in this military capacity.

Another famous European terrorist group is Euskadi Ta Askatasuna or Basque Homeland and Freedom, better known as ETA. ETA primarily murdered Spanish public officials, especially during the Spanish transition to democracy in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Nearly 800 policeman and public workers were killed in 1979 and 1980. Although there is a Basque population in France, ETA has rarely perpetrated violence against the French government, but has received a stern French response when it has.

Who are the christian terrorist groups in the world?

True Christians, the ones who have Christ as their Savior do not have any terrorist groups. When ever you see anything about a Christian terrorist group you can attribute it to people who want to put a black mark against Christianity and falsely claim Christians are terrorist's or there is an unchristian group of terrorists claiming to be Christian. Calling a Christian a terrorist is like calling the LORD God (Yahweh) a false idol, which is utterly ridiculous. Only the Devil's children would do such a thing.
