Somalia has had no effective government since 1991.

A transnational government backed by Ethiopian troops threw out Islamists from the capital in 2006.

Islamic rebel attacks are carried out daily and more than 20,000 flee Mogadishu each month.

Somalia is the most impoverished countries in Africa, and one of the poorest countries in the world.

There is also a conflict and interest with the problem of piracy, especially in and around the Horn of Africa.
