For analytical purposes, he settles on 1991 for the start date of a new civil war, on the grounds that the fighting had begun previously, but that a major party to the conflict was defeated.{{cite journal|title=Why Do Some Civil Wars Last So Much Longer Than Others?|first=James D.|last=Fearon|journal=Journal of Peace Research|volume=41|number=3|year=2004|pages=275–301|doi=10.1177/0022343304043770|citeseerx=10.1.1.19.3818|s2cid=7158376}} Robinson writes that the "civil war had effectively begun by 1987", referring to Compagnon.{{cite journal|first=Colin|last=Robinson|year=2016|title=Revisiting the rise and fall of the Somali Armed Forces, 1960–2012|journal=Defense & Security Analysis|volume=32|issue=3|pages=237–252|doi=10.1080/14751798.2016.1199122|s2cid=156874430}}|group="nb"|name="Startdate"}}
