As President, Hafez organized state services along sectarian lines the Sunnis became the heads of political institutions, while the Alawites took control of the military, intelligence, and security apparatuses. Even though Hafez sided with the Soviet Union in the cold war against Israel, he prosecuted and repressed leftists such as supporters of Salah Jadid, at home. Hafez's policies indirectly led to the establishment of a "new elite" as state officials used their positions for personal gain resulting in spikes of corruption.

From the 1970s to the early 1980s the [[file:AlawiteDynasty.png]] Alawite Dynasty found its power and grip over Syria challenged by a series of revolts and armed insurgencies of Sunni Islamists, mainly members of the Muslim Brotherhood which aimed to overthrow the secular Ba'athist dictatorship. The Islamist uprising reached its climax in the 1982 Hama uprising and massacre, which resulted in at least 2,000 casualties.

The Islamist uprising reached its climax in the 1982 Hama uprising and massacre, which resulted in tens of thousands casualties and was used by Hafez to eliminate dissent turning Syria into a totalitarian dictatorship

From 1 May 1991, the Assad government would further liberalize the Syrian economy and encourage foreign investment from the Gulf States which would help with various infrastructure and development projects.

====[[File:Bashar al-Assad.png]] '''Bashar al-Assad'''====


Following the death of Hafez al-Assad in 2000 and the succession of his son, Bashar to the presidency, political repression diminished significantly in what was known as Damascus Spring. Bashar attempted to improve relations with the west through market liberal reforms such as the privatization of education, healthcare, the banking sector, and the media. However, corruption only increased, and the Syrian opposition began to organize foreign powers came to decide that Assad had to go.
Following his assumption of power in 2000, Bashar al-Assad would continue to liberalize the Syrian economy and encourage growth in the private sector. In 2001, private banking in Syria had been legalized for the first time under Ba'athist rule.


*'''Syrian Civil War''' - Due to a combination of Bashar's domestic policies and the agenda of foreign powers like the US, Turkey, and The Gulf States, opposition to the Assad dictatorship began to mount leading to a full-on civil war when the Syrian opposition splintered along the lines of [[File:Islamic Democracy.png]] [[Islamic Democracy|Islamic Democrats]], [[File:Muslim 2.png]] [[Islamic Theocracy|Sunni fundementalists]], [[File:Nalib.png]] [[National Liberalism|National Liberals]] and sometimes, even [[File:Jihad.png]] [[Jihadism|Jihadists]]. As time passed, within the northern region of the nation, many of the Kurdish minority, having felt neglected and ignored by the Syrian government, unified under the ideology and [[File:Demcon.png]] [[Democratic Confederalism]] and later also got involved in the war under the administration of the "autonomous region" of [[File:Rojava.png]] Rojava. The [[File:Cball-Isis.png]][[Jihadism|Islamic State]] got involved in 2013 but lost most of its territory by 2017. The [[File:Cball-FSA.png]] [[Islamic Democracy|Free]] [[National Liberalism|Syrian]] [[Islamic Theocracy|Army]] also came into existence as a loose collection of militant factions within the [[File:Islamic Democracy.png]] [[Islamic Democracy|Islamic Democrats]] without any singular unifying ideology, however, were all unified by the desire to overthrow the Syrian Ba'athists and Assad. Eventually, over time, the large-support of the opposition eventually began to die out within the population, which has led to a large amount of rebel-owned territory being lost, with many rebel factions that are currently still active in the civil war either being allied or ideologically aligned with hard-core [[File:Muslim 2.png]] [[Islamic Theocracy|Islamist fundementalists]], [[File:Jihad.png]] [[Jihadism|Jihadists]], [[File:Ottoman.png]] [[Neo-Ottomanism|Pro-Turkish Insurgents]], or having integrated themselves within the administration of [[File:Rojava.png]] [[Democratic Confederalism|Rojava]] and the SDF, with those who did the ladder tended to follow more liberal-leaning ideologies, with many factions following ideologies such as moderate Syrian Patriotism, secularism, [[File:Dem.png]] [[Democracy]], anti-racism, or even aligning with the ideology of [[File:Demcon.png]] [[Democratic Confederalism]], with certain rebel factions including but not limited to:
