Civil War in Liberia
A member of the Independent National Patriotic Front of Liberia (INPFL) wears a patch reading, "Death before dishonor." Responding to years of government corruption and oppression, in 1989 the National Patriotic Front of Liberia (NPFL) launched a revolt against President Samuel Doe, seizing control of much of Liberia and plunging the country into massive civil war. The INPFL, a splinter group of the NPFL, is responsible for the execution of President Doe. (Photo by Patrick ROBERT/Sygma via Getty Images)
