== How this page is made ==
Assembled directly from the war archive: no model writes any part of it, so nothing on it can be invented, mis-summarised or attributed to an outlet that did not say it. The cost is that it does not read as narrative - the archive stores headlines, not article text, and this page does not pretend otherwise. The Background section is not from the war archive: those facts are retrieved from a reference work, archived, and cited individually. Background source: CIA World Factbook (public domain).
