The capital of Somalia. Since 1991, when Somalia's government collapsed, it has been the center of intense warfare that continues to this day. In, 1993, when a US-led UN coalition tried to stabilize Somalia, 19 Americans died in a battle in what was later known as 'Black Hawk Down'. Since 2006, Ethiopian troops have had a presence in Mogadishu.
