Civil War

After suffering through years of civil war in Guatemala, the people may finally get some new information. The president of Guatemala has said that he will release "war archives" that span over nearly four decades of civil war. This is a huge step toward moving on from the tragedies of the past. After over 250,000 people had gone missing, the war documents are long overdue for those looking for closure. Maybe, the people of Guatemala will finally be able to see what happened to their missing loved ones: the government took them hostage.
