  So that's a large article, mind putting a summary?

    Here's an excerpt from the article: "Since the 9/11 attacks in the United States in 2001, the tribal areas are a major theatre of militancy and terrorism. Pakistan Army launched 10 operations against the Taliban since 2001, most recently Operation Zarb-e-Azb in North Waziristan. The operations have displaced about two million people from the tribal areas, as schools, hospitals, and homes have been destroyed in the war.[1]" [edit] A quick internet search also suggest a number of other articles in other areas: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%22autonomous+region%22+violent+extremism&t=ffab&ia=web https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%22autonomous+region%22+violent+ex...

      I'm not sure comparing a terrorist state and an autonomous community is a fair comparison. The land would still be government's properly and they could probably still enforce peace, but that region could do away with any other legislation, regulations, taxes, as well as financial helps from the state. There are a few independant autonomous communities throughout Europe already, but nothing at a really large scale. They could use that opportunity to test new forms of democracy and economy.
