2. Soviet Union invasion of Afghanistan
Communist government of Afghanistan asked the USSR to invade Afghanistan to stop the rebels. This was not taken well by the mainly muslim Afghan people; they started a military group, called mujahadeen to fight the soviets. The Afghans used guerilla warfare. The Afghans eventually caused the fall of the Soviet Union. The USSR bombed Afghanistan into the stone age, but the Afghans never surrendered and the USSR left Afghanistan. The Taliban came to power in Afghanistan after this war and a civil war.
