I am Alan Booth, an ordinary British Man . I'm not one of the famous people that have the same name as me, just an ordinary guy. Welcome to my main blog, a true reliable record of history from the perspective of an ordinary man, a place filled with my thoughts; perhaps my thoughts will persist longer on here than in my brain itself.

Sudan Civil War
This week tensions between the Sudan Military and Paramilitary fighters has escalated into a civil war. The iconic image we have of the start of the civil war was was a news presenter trying to calm everyone down and stay orderly but being interrupted by gun fire sounds.
I think the cause of the war was the internet and social media. Back in 2011, there were rebellions breaking out in dictatorships throughout north Africa , the term 'Arab Spring' was coined by the British news media. What happened was there was rebellions in one nation and nations nearby saw the rebellions on social media and thought it was a good idea because they want to have democracy. Many nations were inspired to rise up against their government. This wave of rebellion spread all the way to Sudan I think. Sudan has had several coups since then. Now it is the military and Paramilitary forces fighting eachother. They both want to have full control of government buildings and international airports.
