Born of anarchy
Born from the multi-year anarchy of Somalia after the 1991 Civil War, Al-Shabab, which is associated with Al-Qaid, has been a war against the Somalian government for more than 16 years.
The armed group often performs attacks aimed at government officials and military staff in the country while trying to demolish the Government to establish its strictly interpretation of Islamic law, though civilians are also in danger.
Controlling parts of Rural Somalia, the group continued to represent a threat to the country despite constant military operations by the Government and the Peace Force of the African Union, which threw it out of the capital, Mogadish.
