The 30-year civil war in Guatemala, which lasted from 1960 to 1996, resulted in the deaths of approximately 200,000 people, the majority being civilians, and left countless others displaced. The conflict was marked by severe human rights abuses, including massacres, forced disappearances, and widespread violence, particularly against indigenous populations. The war's aftermath has led to ongoing social and economic challenges, deep-seated inequalities, and a fragile peace process that struggles with issues of justice and reconciliation. Despite the signing of peace accords in 1996, the lingering effects of the war continue to impact Guatemalan society today.
