How do countries whose regime collapse, become places where terrorists grow?

 

Power Vacuum and Lack of Governance

• Absence of Central Authority: With the collapse of a regime, there is often no effective central authority to maintain law and order. This creates a power vacuum that terrorist groups can exploit to establish control over territory and populations.

Availability of Weapons

• Proliferation of Arms: In the chaos following a regime collapse, military arsenals are often looted, and weapons become widely available. Terrorist groups can acquire these arms to enhance their operational capabilities.

Economic Collapse and Poverty

• Desperation and Vulnerability: The economic collapse that often accompanies the fall of a regime can lead to widespread poverty and unemployment. Desperate and disenfranchised individuals may turn to terrorist groups for financial support, protection, or a sense of purpose.
