jan 1, 1992 - Civil war of Tajikistan
Description:
(1992-1997)
began in May 1992 when regional groups from the Garm and Gorno-Badakhshan regions of Tajikistan rose up against the government of President Rahmon Nabiyev, which was dominated by people from the Khujand and Kulyab regions. The rebel groups were led by a combination of liberal democratic reformers and Islamists, who would later organize under the banner of the United Tajik Opposition. By June 1997, an estimated 20,000 to 100,000 people had been killed.
