The '''First Ivorian Civil War''' was a conflict in the [[Ivory Coast]] (also known as Côte d'Ivoire) that began in 2002. Although most of the fighting ended by late 2004, the country remained split in two, with a rebel-held north and a government-held south.{{Citation needed|date=April 2018}} Hostility increased and raids on foreign troops and civilians rose. {{As of|2006}}, the region was tense, and many said the UN and the [[French military]] failed to calm the civil war.
