Somalia has been in a state of anarchy since 1991 when the US withdrew its forces after 18 soldiers were killed by Somali forces. The conflict in the Congo is complex with involvement from neighboring countries seeking to control its valuable natural resources, as well as rebels from Rwanda and Uganda continuing fighting after the Rwandan genocide. Despite a large UN peacekeeping force, atrocities continue against civilians, especially rape of women and children.
The document provides background information on peacekeeping missions in Somalia led by the United Nations and involving forces from Canada and other countries in the early 1990s. It discusses the civil war in Somalia, the goals of the UN peacekeeping mission to provide humanitarian aid and establish peace, challenges faced by peacekeepers including violence and lack of consent, and consequences including the withdrawal of US and other forces after clashes with warlords like Aidid.
The document discusses the history and politics of Somalia, including the overthrow of dictator Siad Barre in 1991, subsequent foreign interventions and operations, the formation of Islamic Courts to provide legal services, and the establishment of the Transitional Federal Government in 2004. It also covers Somalia's geography, noting regions like Somaliland and Puntland. Other topics covered include Ethiopia's invasion in 2006 to remove the Union of Islamic Courts from power, debates around foreign engagement in Somalia, piracy off Somalia's coast, and potential partnerships and approaches to address the situation.
The document discusses the UN peacekeeping operations in Lebanon and South Sudan. In Lebanon, UNIFIL was established in 1978 to confirm Israeli withdrawal, restore peace and security, and assist the Lebanese government. While it has failed to prevent attacks, its presence has helped avoid larger conflicts. In South Sudan, UNMISS was established in 2011 after South Sudan gained independence, to consolidate peace, help development, and strengthen the government. It supports developing security forces and key sectors. The document provides details on the mandates, sizes, budgets and contributors of the two peacekeeping missions.

It also discusses the expansion of peacekeeping in the 1990s, failures in Somalia, Rwanda and Bosnia, and subsequent reforms recommended in the 2000 Brahimi report to improve UN peacekeeping efforts.
