It began in response to oppressive regimes and a low standard of living, beginning with protests in Tunisia. In the news, Social Media has been heralded as the driving force behind the swift spread of revolution throughout the world. Governments have suppressed forum discussions and shut down communication on sites such as Facebook.
The Arab Spring spread to five other countries: Libya, Egypt, Yemen, Syria and Bahrain, where either the regime was toppled or major uprisings and social violence occurred. Street demonstrations took place in Morocco, Iraq, Algeria, Iranian Khuzestan, Lebanon, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman and Sudan. Minor protests occurred in Djibouti, Mauritania, the Palestinian National Authority, Saudi Arabia, and the Moroccan-occupied Western Sahara.
International estimates of over 61,080 deaths are attributed to the Arab Spring.
