Here are graphs of the terrorists attacks in Iraq and USA from 1981 to 2017. One interesting observation is that some of the terrorist attacks aren’t directly in the country the dataset states it took place in. For example, there are a couple of terrorist attacks physically in China, but state the attack was directed towards the US. It is still being determined if these data points will be included in the data.
Again, it seems that terrorist attacks were less common in the 1900’s compared to the 2000’s so background information needs to be found about exactly why. Another observation I quickly saw was that a significant amount of terrorists attacks in Italy were from 1900’s. The opposite is true for Yemen and neighboring countries. These are also possible options for analysis.
