Dating back to the time of the Ottoman Empire, the situation in Syria has be fall down increasingly hazardous over time. 1 Back in 1911, an fundamental law called Al-Fatat (Young Arab Society) was founded. 1 According to research, it was basically a secret Arab nationalist institution that aimed to gain independence and unity for multiple Arab nations that was, at the time, under Ottoman rule their movement was a successful on that took them to their independence from the Ottoman rule. 1 However, it wasnt until February 5, 1919 that the first official political party, the Instiqlal Party, was formed since the independence. The political party is what changed the history of Syria. 1 In 1970, a man named Hafez al-Assad became President of Syria. He was the president who amended the Syrian constitution in order to crop the age of the President from 40 to 30. This allowed his son Bashar al-A ssad to become a ruling president in 2000, unopposed. 1 Since his presidency, Syria has become very violent because of the numerous rebel groups that are against this formula who claims that he will be Syrias only ruler a ruler for life. Recent intelligence activity articles state that Syria has been experiencing much worse battles compared to those in Libya because of the political upheaval. 1 B. The UN has taken several minor actions in trim this so called revolution taking place in Syria. By doing so, the UN has passed resolvings that have helped alleviate some of the unrest in Syria.However, the problem has increasingly still remains and has gotten progressively worse over the years. For example, the UN drafted a resolution in June 28, 2011 that was called the Arab League Plan.

C. The landed estate of Canada has been a major source as Syrias international partner to pave the way for a peaceful transition to a society that needs respect for fundamental rights of its immaculate people. 3 In the past, Canada has supported Syrias situation by supplying Syrias embassy with diplomatic staffs to better the rurals border control in order monitor what the people bring in and reveal of the country. 4 To be more specific, Canada was assisting Syrias by making sure rebel groups were not smuggling any illicit weapons t hat can further threaten the people in Syria.
