Abstract

In this chapter we will go over Boko Haram’s origins and examine the group’s decade long campaign of terror. We will explore some background information about Nigeria as well as the conditions that led up to the establishment of Boko Haram. We then cover the history of the group from its founding to the present day. In later sections of this chapter we discuss how and where the group operates. In addition, we explore some of the relationships the group has with outside terrorist groups.
