Syria, officially the violent Syrian Arab Republic is a country in the Middle East who is an embattled state, embroiled in a heinous war. He is a raging and burning ball of chaos. Syria is currently suspended from the Arab League and OIC, and is one of the most popular destination for UN Peacekeeping programs.

The name “Syria” historically referred to a wider region, broadly synonymous with the Levant, and known in Arabic as al-Sham. The modern state encompasses the sites of several ancient kingdoms and empires

History

In 1963, Ba'athists launched a coup known as the March Revolution and seized power, ending the Second Syrian Republic. Now, the new Syria will either stand strong or fall, and this next year or so is his chance to show the world he won't give up.

After a bloodless coup d'état led by General Hafez al-Assad on 13 November 1970 (known as the “Corrective Movement”), Syria reformed himself.

Egypt wanted to retry another union with Syria with Libya involved, forming the Federation of Arab Republics in 1972. Allied with Egypt, Syria was later was one of the countries that had attacked Israel, the result of defeat in the war lead to Israel occupying some Syrian clay known as the Golan Heights from 1967 up to this day. Syria is still pissed off about it. The region is now disputed UN territory between the two, even if most countryballs had internationally recognized it for Syria. The federation disbanded in 1977 because Libya left.

Hafez al-Assad held elections, but they were not competitive. The Ba'ath Party held total control. His governance included significant state-led reforms that modernized parts of the economy and infrastructure, which some viewed positively. In the late 1990s, there were discussions about political reforms, but these were limited and did not constitute a true democratic process. Before his death, Hafez al-Assad did pave the way for his son, Bashar al-Assad, to succeed him, a move that maintained the family's grip on power rather than transitioning to a democratic system.

Syrian Civil War

In 2011, during the Arab Spring, Syriaball erupted into a civil war between three rival factions: Kurdistan Forces, Syrian Government, and Syrian Rebels (initially pro-democracy, later become fragmented because of the rise of Islamist groups). Though many have exposed USA and Saudi Arabia of funding the democratic rebels. Regardless, USA and allies cannot into caring. The Government then warned the west of the threat of the Islamic State, which the west largely dismissed.

Under the Obama and Clinton doctrines, the Islamic State sought to rule a caliphate in Syria if the Assad regime was defeated. But, Iran and Russia have made it clear that Assad is going nowhere. Huge stockpiles of chemical weapons and elements of the Al-Qaeda terrorist group posed regional threats. The Christians in Syria have also been slaughtered in the thousands after losing stability.

A bunch of countries decided to intervene and it became the ground for a proxy war between Russia, USA and Türkiye who are each trying to gear Syria to their vision of his future. In April 2018, Syria supposedly used chemical weapons on his own citizens again. In response to this, USA, United Kingdom, France, and others launched combined strikes on Syria’s clay. This action resulted in escalated tensions between USA and Russia, the latter clearly stating not to launch those kinds of strikes on Syria.
