The Jasmine Revolution began in Tunisia in December 2010, after Mohamed Bouazizi's self-immolation in protest of police corruption and ill treatment. This event sparked widespread protests across the country, leading to the ousting of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali in January 2011. The success of the protests in Tunisia inspired similar movements in other Arab countries, leading to what is known as the Arab Spring.
