The Tunisia Effect is a term coined during the Wikipedia:2010-2011 Arab world protests to describe the domino-like effect that the protests in Wikipedia:Tunisia had on the rest of the countries in the Wikipedia:MENA region (the Wikipedia:Arab World).[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]

The protests have spread to almost every country in the Arab world as well as Iran and many others with anti-government protests in much of Africa, Asia, and Europe. There are countless Wikipedia:2010–2011 Middle East and North Africa protest areas.

The protests were highly influential on each other, with many viewing the Tunisian Revolution as the catalyst for larger change in the region.[10] Protesters across the Arab World were influenced by the protests occurring simultaneously in other countries, with many displaying solidarity with citizens of neighboring countries (such as protesters in Egypt flying Tunisian flags and other examples throughout the protests).

Background[edit]

In late 2010 and early 2011, an unprecedented series of protests swept across Wikipedia:Northern Africa and the Wikipedia:Arabian Peninsula. Protests broke out in Tunisia, leading to the Wikipedia:2010–2011 Tunisian revolution, and the eventual peaceful overthrow of the Tunisian govenmnent and the head of the country Wikipedia:Zine El Abidine Ben Ali. This was followed shortly by the Wikipedia:Egyptian Revolution of 2011 and the overthrow of Egyptian President Wikipedia:Hosni Mubarak, and numerous other massive protests throughout the Wikipedia:Mahgreb and beyond.

Citizens of these countries were protesting for more democratic rights, better living conditions and regime change.

The protests, largely peaceful, were leveraged by the use of social media sites such as Wikipedia:Twitter, Facebook (WP), and Wikipedia:YouTube, and Internet censorship circumvention tools such as Tor.

Countries affected by the Tunisia Effect[edit]

The following countries experienced protests influenced by the 2010-2011 Tunisian Revolution:
