¶ … Arab Spring: the political movement The overall incidents that have recently surfaced in the form of political revolts and instability within the Arab world have been termed as the 'Arab Spring'. This particular chain of events was lead primarily by the Jasmine revolution which began back in December 2010. The jasmine revolution basically meant to overrun the authoritative Tunisian administration which it was successful in doing and thus the revolution was then able to spread to the neighboring nations like Egypt, Syria and Libya. The Arab Spring has shown that there is an excessive and extensive need and demand for the rule of democracy as well as exercise of civil rights from within all the countries that have been included within the Arab Spring phenomenon and thus we see revolutions surfacing in all major regions like Tunisia, Libya, Egypt.

His resignation ended the reign of 3 decades and the governance was then handed over to the military forces who were assigned the job to design the structure of the brand new government and constitution (Aa, 2011).

The military forces started by dissolving the parliament that was in place at the time and completely disregarding the constitution that had been followed during the former president's rule. The aim of the armed forces was to give back the power to a structure government, one that would be elected through the parliamentarian setup later in the year.
