8. Chapter 7: Mosul
   • Mosul was the largest city ISIS held in Iraq. It was also one of the oldest cities in the world. The ancient city was once an economic center of the region, but the ongoing war in the country had taken away all its glory. After American troops being drawn back from Iraq in 2011, Mosul was seized by a terrorist group, which later became ISIS.
   • ISIS provided a rather functional government compared to corrupted Iraqi officials. The extremists provided electricity to poor area, forbidden bribes, and clean the roads. Because of its capacity to govern, ISIS quickly won supports from poor areas around the globe.
   • However, they also carried out brutal punishments. Dissidents were lashed, amputated or beheaded publicly. As the result, the group remained being feared and hated by many of its citizens.
