[edit]- The 2010–2011 Tunisian revolution, also called the Jasmine Revolution, was a color revolution. It started as a campaign of civil resistance in Tunisia that began in December 2010. It is widely regarded as having initiated the Arab Spring. The reason it was called the "jasmine revolution" was because the jasmine is the national flower of Tunisia.
