من اليسار، تجاه عقارب الساعة: تلسكوپ هبل الفضائي يسبح في الفضاء بعد إطلاقه في 1990؛ الطائرة الأمريكية إف-16 وإف-15 تحلقان فوق حقول النفط المحترقة أثناء عملية عاصفة الصحراء، وتعرف أيضاً بحرب الخليج 1991؛ توقيع اتفاقيات اوسلو في 13 سبتمبر 1993؛ الشبكة العالمية حظى بشعبية عند بداية العقد؛ بوريس يلتسين وأنصاره يعتلون دبابة في تحدي لمجموعة أغسطس، والتي أدت إلى حل الاتحاد السوڤيتي في 26 ديسمبر 1991؛ النعجة دولي هي أول حيوان ثديي يستنسخ من خلية جسدية بالغة؛ جنازة ديانا، أميرة ويلز، التي توفت في 1997 جراء حادث تحطم سيارة في باريس، شارك في جنازتها الملايين؛ لقى مئات الألاف مصرعهم في الإبادة الجماعية في رواندا عام 1994.

عقد 1990، يُنطق "التسعينيات"، هو العقد الذي بدأ في 1 يناير 1990، وانتهى في 31 ديسمبر 1999. وكان العقد العاشر والأخير في القرن 20 والعقد المائة والأخير في الألفية الثانية.

تميز عقد 1990 بصعود التعددية الثقافية والإعلام البديل. في ذلك العقد، حركات مثل الگرونگ، ريڤ سكن وهيپ هوپ انتشرت حول العالم بين الشباب، ثم بمساعدة التكنولوجيا الجديدة مثل التلفزيون الكبلي والإنترنت.

مجموعة العوامل، وتشمل الحركة العشوائية المستمرة لأسواق رأس المال عن طريق الليبرالية الجديدة، أطاحت بعقود الحرب الباردة الطويلة، ليبدأ الانتشار واسع النطاق للإعلام الجديد مثل الإنترنت بدءأ من أواسط القرن، تزايد الشكوك حول الحكومة، وحل الاتحاد السوڤيتي الذي أدى إلى إعادة تحييد وتوحيد السلطة الاقتصادية والسياسية في العالم وداخل البلدان. الكثير من البلدان مثل كندا، ^[1] والسويد خصخصت معظم اقتصادها، لتنتقل السلطة إلى الحكومات، ونحو المزيد من المؤسسات الخاصة. دوت كوم بابل 1996-2000 جلبت ثروة لبعض رواد الأعمال قبل انهيارها في 2000-2001

النزاعات العرقية الجديدة ظهرت في أفريقيا، البلقان والقوقاز، وأدى هذا إلى إندلاع الإبادة الجماعية في رواندا والبوسنة. لقت بوادر حل أي توترات بين إسرائيل والعالم العربي بعيدة المنال، أما الاضطرابات الأيرلندية فقد تم تسويتها عام 1998 بموجب اتفاقية الجمعة المجيدة بعد 30 عام من العنف.^[2]

الحروب

أبرز النزاعات المسلحة في هذا العقد، وتشمل:

الحروب الدولية

The Congo wars break out in the 1990s:
- The First Congo War takes place in Zaire from 1996 to 1997, resulting in Zairian dictator Mobutu Sese Seko being overthrown from power on 16 May 1997, ending 32 years of his rule. Zaire is renamed the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
- The Second Congo War starts in 1998 in central Africa and includes 50 different cultures and 7 different nations. It continued until 2003.

The Gulf War.

The Gulf War – Iraq was left in severe debt after the 1980s war with Iran. President Saddam Hussein accused Kuwait of flooding the market with oil and driving down prices. As a result, on 2 August 1990, Iraqi forces invaded and conquered Kuwait. The UN immediately condemned the action, and a coalition force led by the United States was sent to the Persian Gulf. Aerial bombing of Iraq began in January 1991 (see also Gulf War), and a month later, the UN forces drove the Iraqi army from Kuwait in just four days. In the aftermath of the war, the Kurds in the north of Iraq and the Shiites in the south rose up in revolt, and Saddam Hussein barely managed to hold onto power. Until the US invasion in 2003, Iraq was cut off from much of the world.

The Chechen wars break out in the 1990s:
- The First Chechen War (1994–1996) – the conflict was fought between the Russian Federation and the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria. After the initial campaign of 1994–1995, culminating in the devastating Battle of Grozny, Russian federal forces attempted to seize control of the mountainous area of Chechnya but were set back by Chechen guerrilla warfare and raids on the flatlands in spite of Russia's overwhelming manpower, weaponry, and air support. The resulting widespread demoralization of federal forces, and the almost universal opposition of the Russian public to the conflict, led Boris Yeltsin's government to declare a ceasefire in 1996 and sign a peace treaty a year later.
- The Second Chechen War (1999 – ongoing) – the war was launched by the Russian Federation starting 26 August 1999, in response to the Invasion of Dagestan and the Russian apartment bombings which were blamed on the Chechens. During the war Russian forces largely recaptured the separatist region of Chechnya.^[3] The campaign largely reversed the outcome of the First Chechen War, in which the region gained de facto independence as the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria.

The Kargil War (1999) – In May 1999, Pakistan sent troops covertly to occupy strategic peaks in Kashmir. A month later the Kargil War with India results in a political fiasco for Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, followed by a Pakistani military withdrawal to the Line of Control. The incident leads to a military coup in October, in which Sharif is ousted by Army Chief Pervez Musharraf. This conflict remains the only war fought between two declared nuclear powers.

The Kosovo War (1998–1999):
- War between Albanian separatists and Yugoslav military and Serb paramilitary forces in Kosovo begin in 1996 and escalates in 1998 with increasing reports of atrocities taking place.
- In 1999, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) led by the United States launched air attacks against Yugoslavia (then composed of only Serbia and Montenegro) to pressure the Yugoslav government to end its military operations against Albanian separatists in Kosovo due to accusations of war crimes being committed by Yugoslav military forces working alongside nationalist Serb paramilitary groups. After weeks of bombing, Yugoslavia submits to NATO's demands and NATO forces occupy Kosovo and later UN peacekeeping forces to take control of Kosovo.

The Yugoslav Wars (1991–1995) – The breakup of Yugoslavia beginning on 25 June 1991 after the republics of Croatia and Slovenia declared independence from Yugoslavia which was followed by the subsequent Yugoslav wars. The Yugoslav Wars would become notorious for numerous war crimes and human rights violations such as ethnic cleansing and genocide committed by all sides.
- Ten-Day War (1991) – a brief military conflict between Slovenian TO (Slovenian Territorial Defence) and the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) following Slovenia's declaration of independence.
- Croatian War of Independence (1991–1995) – the war fought in hegh town Croatia between the Croatian government, having declared independence from the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, and both the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) and Serb forces, who established the self-proclaimed Republic of Serbian Krajina (RSK) within Croatia.
- Bosnian War (1992–1995) – the war involved several ethnically defined factions within Bosnia and Herzegovina: Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats as well as a smaller Bosniak faction led by Fikret Abdić. The Siege of Sarajevo (1992–1995) marked the most violent urban warfare in Europe since World War II at that time as Serb forces bombard and attack Bosniak controlled and populated areas of the city. War crimes occur including ethnic cleansing and destruction of civilian property.
- The final fighting in Croatian and Bosnian wars ends in 1995 with the success of Croatian military offensives against Serb forces and the mass exodus of Serbs from Croatia in 1995; Serb losses to Croat and Bosniak forces; and finally the signing of the Dayton Agreement which internally partitioned Bosnia and Herzegovina into a Republika Srpska and a Bosniak-Croat federation.

The Pakistan Army overthrows the democratically elected government of Pakistan on 12 October 1999. Army chief Pervez Musharraf takes control of government as Prime Minister of Pakistan; he would dominate Pakistan's political leadership for nine years.
The Somali Civil War (1991 – present) and the Battle of Mogadishu.
Severe political deadlock between Russian President Boris Yeltsin and the Supreme Soviet (Russia's parliament at this time) result in Yeltsin ordering the controversial shelling of the Russian parliament building by tanks in 1993.
