Tunisia is successfully democratic and truly secular, unlike most of its neighbors, this poses problems for extremists who don't want democracy to been seen as successful and progressive in Muslim countries, so they specifically target them.
We seriously need to help Tunisia as it's one of the main ways to combat Islamic Extremism, they are doing well but still face some big problems regarding corruption and terrorism. Thankfully the EU is trying.
Tunisia has now declared a state of emergency
At least 11 deads
