Reference to self-immolation of Mohamed Bouazizi -date error

[edit]

"following the self-immolation of Mohamed Bouazizi on 17 December 2011" The self immolation was 17 December 2010, as the Wikipedia article on Mohamed Bouazizi shows; the protests in January of 2011 were sparked by his December 2010 suicide. >>Background[edit source] Tunisian revolution of 2011[edit source] Main article: Tunisian revolution A period of civil resistance characterized by riots and unrest took place throughout the nation following the self-immolation of Mohamed Bouazizi on 17 December 2011 and fueled by high unemployment, corruption, political repression and poor living conditions forcing President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali to flee the country ending his 23-year rule over Tunisia.[20][21] This was followed by the suspension then dissolution of the former ruling RCD party and the resignation of Prime Minister Mohamed Ghannouchi amid further public pressure.[22]<<
