Jorden (I was born there. :P) and Israel have been fighting for centeries because if that, which ticks me off. The civil war in Libya caused my family a lot of crap. It's ruined a lot for my family, since my dad had a job there and now it's all gone.

Middle-East has gone through a lot, mostly due to ISIS.

Let me explain ISIS:

Iraq is my parents' birth country, so they've told me how it started. Before the American-Iraqi war of 2003, Iraq was lead by bascially a dictator named Saddam Hussain (you may have heard about him, no doubt). He was a Sunni Muslim, and what he did was prosecute Shia'a Muslims (which is my ethnicity) and had the Sunni minority suppress the Shia'a majority of Iraq.

My parents left Iraq and moved to Canada when I was about three, during the war.

After his death in 2006, the roles switched, causing conflict and for ISIS to rise. And now they've taken over a large chuck of Iraq and even Syria.

These wars have caused so much trouble for our family, even if we live in Australia at the moment. Since my father's family lives in Iraq at the moment and he lost his job, it's been very stressful, but we are still managing despite that.
