Its seven years since the so-called Arab Spring revolution erupted, which saw mass protests bring sweeping political change to several countries across the Arab world. In this ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Minute series we’re looking at Tunisia, the North African country where it all began - and where protesters have again taken to the streets in recent weeks. Wafa Zaiane, a Tunisian journalist for the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Arabic Service has been revisiting the events of the 2011 revolution and the changes it brought to the country.
