Second Algerian Civil War (WarGeek)

Background
The Second Algerian Civil War was a protracted armed conflict that took place in Algeria over a nearly seven year period. The conflict began with an uprising and international coalition intervention against the corrupt, authoritarian, regime of Abdelaziz Bouteflika. Most of the conflict was between the successor state (Islamic Republic of Algeria) of the Abdelaziz Bouteflika's FLN regime, backed by Coalition Forces from 5 different countries against a large alliance of Islamist rebels, FLN loyalists. Casualties of the war, both armed combatants and civilians, are disputed.

Uprising Phase (2019-2020)
Algeria never fully recovered from its civil war in the 1990's. The First Algerian Civil War resulted in a government victory against various Islamist militant groups. Islamists won a large majority in Algeria's first free local elections in 1990. The military launched a coup on the eve of the 1992 election, which the Islamists were very likely to win. Islamist groups responded to the coup by going underground and waging guerrilla attacks against Government Forces over the decade. Between 150,000-200,000+ people were killed. The 1990's Civil War ended as Abelaziz Bouteflika, backed by the military, was elected President of Algeria in 1999.

President Bouteflika began his term while peace talks to end the Civil War were making substantial progress.
