What caused the Rohingya crisis ? #history #geopolitics #worldhistory

The video explores the complex roots of the Rohingya crisis, emphasizing that it is not a single event but a result of decades of systemic struggle. It highlights the 1982 Myanmar Citizenship Law as a major turning point, which excluded the Rohingya from the 135 recognized ethnic groups, effectively making them the world’s largest stateless population.

This lack of citizenship stripped them of basic rights, including access to education, healthcare, and freedom of movement. The narrative also touches upon historical tensions dating back to colonial times and World War II, which fueled mistrust between the Rohingya and the Rakhine Buddhist majority. The crisis peaked in August 2017 following a military crackdown that the UN described as a "textbook example of ethnic cleansing," forcing over 700,000 people to flee to Bangladesh. Today, over a million Rohingya remain in refugee camps, unable to return home safely.
