Fakta
In late 2010, Tunisian street vendor Mohamed Bouazizi doused himself in gasoline and set himself on fire, sparking waves of anti-government protests. Within weeks, the Tunisian president had fled the country, and protests rippled across the Middle East leading to riots, civil unrest and insurgencies. A decade later, we reflect on how the uprisings have reshaped the Arab world—starting in Tunisia, the place where it all began.
