What is a failed state?
A failed state is a term used to describe a nation or state that has lost its ability to provide
basic services and maintain law and order within its borders. In a failed state, the government
is unable to control its territory, protect its citizens, or maintain the rule of law.
Typically, a failed state is characterized by widespread violence, lawlessness, and insecurity, as
well as a breakdown of infrastructure and essential services such as healthcare, education,
and public utilities. A failed state is often marked by political instability, corruption, and the
inability of the government to provide basic needs for its citizens.
The term "failed state" is often used to describe countries where there is a significant threat
to global security, as the lack of government control can make it an attractive location for
criminal activity or terrorist organizations.
