Liberia is a nation established by the United States of America through a philanthropic organization that advocated against slavery in America known as the American Colonization Society (ACS). The purpose for the establishment was to repatriate free slaves to Africa who wanted this process carried out voluntarily. When the free slaves were repatriated to Liberia, they met indigenous Liberians who are referred to as African Liberians. The founding of Liberia by freeman of color who are referred to in Liberian History as Americo-Liberians did not allowed the equal treatment of the natives. This misrule existed for 133 years of one-party system planting the seeds of the crises of penetration, distribution, identity, governance, legitimacy, and historical interpretation. These crises led to the violent overthrow of the True Whig Party that ushered in a military regime headed by Master Sergeant Samuel K. Doe. President Doe ruled for a decade and failed to live up to the promises and reasons for the violent overthrow of 1980, and this led to the popular uprising headed by Mr. Charles Taylor.
