On 17 December 2010, Mohammed Bouazizi, a young vegetable merchant, sets himself on fire as a protest against oppression and against a president that had denied him and millions of other young people the right to dream of a better future.
In the days that followed, young people flooded the streets of Tunisia, demanding for the president Zine Al-Abidine Ben Ali to step down. The regime tried to crush the revolt, but the president Ben Ali eventually gave up, and on January 14 he left the country he had ruled for 23 years. . boredpanda.com
