Terrorist Attacks In Europe From 1950 To 2015

Here's another map that tracks violence; this one identifies all of the terrorist attacks that occurred in Europe from 1950 to 2015. It's easy to make out a couple of prominent hot spots on the map, such as Northern Ireland. However, there are also some clusters that seem like anomalies, such as those in Nordic and Eastern European countries. Turkey has quite a few attacks dotted in the eastern parts of the country.

There is also a pretty large cluster around eastern Ukraine and countries Russia had conflicts with in the 1990s. There also seem to be a couple of scattered dots deep in Russia.
