Abstract	:	Many analyses of civil conflict focus on nation-state scale processes. Necessarily, such an approach ignores local complexity in many of the most violent regions of the world. In this study geostatistical and spatial-statistical regression methods are employed to investigate patterns of political violence in Somalia between 1975 and 2006. Data were gathered for this study and are publicly available. The findings reveal interesting and unexpected patterns relating to a number of socio-economic variables such as income and social diversity, as well as structural variables. Additionally, by disaggregating my analysis temporally, the findings reveal that certain patterns of violence change after complete state collapse in 1991.
