Answer:
The movie Blood Diamond is based on the Sierra Leone Civil War of 1991-2002, during which the trade of conflict diamonds funded much of the violence. One historical example of conflict diamonds can be seen in the Angola Civil War of 1975-2002, where diamonds were used to finance the conflict between the government and rebel forces. The rebels, known as UNITA, controlled diamond-rich areas and traded diamonds to fund their operations. This led to the implementation of the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme, which aimed to certify the origin of rough diamonds to prevent the trade in blood diamonds. However, the effectiveness of the scheme is still debated and it has been criticized for not covering all aspects of the trade. (source: BBC News)
