Human Rights in the Civil War #2

In 1976, the régime's token land reform did little to alleviate the economic inequity. The government replied to the consequent political unrest with state-of-siege declarations, the suspension of constitutional rights, and paramilitary death squads. These actions made the population and prompted many in the Catholic Church to denounce the government violence. These was the main trouble that caused the civil war, the people were tired of frauds and that the government didn’t respect them as persons.

75,000 dead the war ended with the Chapultepec Peace Accords (1992);  wich restructured the Salvadoran Armed Forces, the National and Treasury Police are dissolved (new civilian-overseen police created) and the  FMLN becomes a political party.
