LIBERIA CIVIL WAR

YEARS: 1989-1997 | DEATHS: 150000

GLOBALSECURITY.ORG has a good article on this conflict: "The Liberian Civil War, which was one of Africa’s bloodiest, claimed the lives of more than 200,000 Liberians and further displaced a million others into refugee camps in neighboring countries.
Elections are scheduled for 1991. But late in 1989, severe communal violence broke out after a failed coup attempt against Doe. Several hundred members of the Gio and Mano tribes, that had been ill-treated by Doe, revolted in the northeast." See link below.
