The union began in 1958 and existed until 1961, when Syria seceded from the union. Egypt continued to be known officially as the "United Arab Republic" until 1971. The President was Gamal Abdel Nasser. During most of its existence (1958–1961) it was a member of the United Arab States, a confederation with North Yemen. The UAR adopted a flag based on the Arab Liberation Flag of the Egyptian Revolution of 1952, but with two stars to represent the two parts. This continues to be the flag of Syria. In 1963, Iraq adopted a flag that was similar but with three stars, representing the hope that Iraq would join the UAR. The current flags of Egypt, Sudan, and Yemen are also based on Arab Liberation Flag of horizontal red, white, and black bands.

  • How Narratives and Evidence Influence Rumor Belief in Conflict Zones: Evidence from Syria
    1 How narratives and evidence influence rumor belief in conflict zones: Evidence from Syria Justin Schon, Postdoctoral Researcher Department of Anthropology, University of Florida [email protected] Turlington Hall, 330 Newell Drive, Gainesville, FL 32611 (352) 392-2253 fax (352) 392-6929 Word count: 10,728 Forthcoming in Perspectives on Politics Abstract: Armed conflict creates a context of high uncertainty and risk, where accurate and verifiable information is extremely difficult to find. This is a prime environment for unverified information—rumors—to spread. Meanwhile, there is insufficient understanding of exactly how rumor transmission occurs within conflict zones. I address this with an examination of the mechanisms through which people evaluate new information. Building on findings from research on motivated reasoning, I argue that elite-driven narrative contests—competitions between elites to define how civilians should understand conflict—increase the difficulty of distinguishing fact from fiction. Civilians respond by attempting thorough evaluations of new information that they hope will allow them to distinguish evidence from narratives. These evaluations tend to involve some combination of self-evaluation, evaluation of the source, and collective sense-making. I examine this argument using over 200 interviews with Syrian refugees conducted in Jordan and Turkey. My findings indicate that people are usually unable to effectively distinguish evidence from narratives, so narrative contests are powerful drivers of rumor evaluation. Still, civilian mechanisms of rumor evaluation do constrain what propaganda elites can spread. These findings contribute to research on civil war, narrative formation, and information diffusion. 2 Introduction On a Friday in August 2012 in a Damascus suburb called Bloudan, Mohamed’s father went to the mosque while Mohamed went to school.

  • 2015 Geography Bee of Asia & Europe ROUND TWO
    2015 Geography Bee of Asia & Europe ROUND TWO 1. In 2003, this country faced mass immigration by refugees fleeing the Janjaweed, a religious militia in its Eastern neighbor’s region of Darfur. Its Southeast is home to the Logone River, which feeds the Chari River, which in turn feeds into a rapidly shrinking namesake lake. For the point, name this country that lies west of Sudan, south of Libya, and north of the Central African Republic. ANSWER: Republic of Chad (RN) 2. The mayor of this city, Frank Jensen, banned city employees from flying with the airline Ryanair. The 2014 Eurovision Song Contest was hosted by this city in the B&W Hallerne, near the island of Amager. This city is famous for its Tivoli Gardens and is suggested to be the home of the mythical Little Mermaid. This city is mostly situated on the island of Zealand and is connected to Malmo via the Øresund Bridge. For the point, name this largest city and capital of Denmark. ANSWER: Copenhagen (WD) 3. This mountain’s name was switched with nearby Mount Townsend, so that a mountain with this name would remain taller. The native name of this mountain means “Table Top Mountain”, and indigenous peoples would live at its summit during the summer, surviving on Bogong moths. This member of the Great Dividing Range was named by Paul Strzelecki after a mound in Krakow. A Polish general is the namesake of – for the point – what tallest mountain in Australia? ANSWER: Mount Kosciuszko (DS) 4. This city’s Mohammad al-Amin Mosque opened in 2008, but is often called the “Hariri Mosque” by locals.

  • Maps of the Middle East
    Flags of the Middle East Overview: In this lesson plan, students will become acquainted with some of the country flags from the Middle East. By examining the symbolism in the flags, students will begin to think about the country’s geography, traditions, and histories. This is a good introduction to the Middle East, which can be paired with units and activities on geography lessons. (See Currency Unit, Capitals Unit, Mobility Unit, etc.) Objectives: Students will: 1. Examine a selection of flags from the Middle East and match them with the flag descriptions. 2. Consider how flags tell a narrative about the values of the peoples they represent by discussing the symbols on the flags. 3. Create a personal flag. Activity: 1. Provide students with the handout including the pictures of the flags and the descriptions of the flags. Ask them to match the country flag to its description. 2. Assign groups one particular flag to work with and ask them to discuss their particular flag. Why are the symbols important? What story does it tell about the country? (For a longer exercise, have the groups become “experts” on that country through research projects and then teach their classmates about the country. See lesson plan on capitals for more ideas.) 3. Allow students to relate to the activity by making connections between Middle Eastern flags and that of the United States. Discuss what the flag of the United States represents and then allow students to create their own personal flag. Teachers: Please contact Angela Williams, CSAMES Outreach Coordinator, at [email protected], for the answer key to the Questions on Flags of the Middle East.

Fatma NİSAN Eylem ŞENTÜRK KARA SEMIOTIC ANALYSIS OF WAR PICTURES DRAWN BY SYRIAN CHILDREN Suriyeli Çocukların Savaş Resimlerinin Göstergebilimsel Analizi Abstract Protests that began on December 18, 2010 in Tunisia and spread to many Arab countries. While governments are falling as a result of public actions, a civil war that will last for many years has started in many countries. One of these countries is Syria that is Turkey’s border neighbor. Protests started in Syria in 2011 first replaced by civil war and then things came to a point that other countries started to involve themselves in Syria's civil problems. The long-lasted Syrian war has created some negative results in social, psychological and economical fields. As it is the case in many wars, civilians have been the targets, many people died and, as a consequence, millions of Syrians left their lands and started to migrate to other countries. Although these people changed the place they used to live, they were not able to erase the memories created by war. Some Syrians children choose to reflect these memories on papers by drawing pictures. This study aims to understand Syrian children’s perception of war, from which they managed to escape in 2011, by analyzing pictures drawn by them. In this context, these drawings are analyzed by using semiotic analysis method.
