Female fighters of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia - People's Army, or FARC, make up one third of the organization. Just like the Amazon women who lived and fought in Anatolian lands throughout history...
So when, why, by whom, for what purpose and reason was FARC founded? What happened in 60 years? What are the experiences of the two female warriors?
In fact, these conditions are not much different from other countries in Latin America. This historical background was the Spanish colony, which ended in the early 1800s, the civil wars that followed, and the opposition that emerged from the 1930s against the sovereignty of landowners, which was the precursor of all these processes.
As the calendar showed 1964, a peasant army started a rebellion in Bogota, wanting to end the oppression of big landowners and destroy feudalism. The ultimate goal of the organization was socialism. The organization, whose number of militants once reached 18 thousand, established control over nearly 40 percent of the country with a population of 45 million. Conflicts due to the FARC organization in Colombia, which have cost more than 300 thousand lives and displaced nearly 6 million people, still continue.
Ceasefire and peace attempts were not very promising for Colombia.
The combative role of women seems to increase militarily both in Colombia and other regions. Especially the fact that the drug trade is the main financing and the large volume of drug trade seems to support such conflicts.
