- The Bougainville Revolutionary Army, or BRA fought a separatist guerilla war against Papua New Guinea beginning in the late 1980s. Tensions erupted over Australian company Rio Tinto’s massive profits from the Panguna gold and copper mine. The conflict grew into a broader war over land, resources and identity. A seven-year blockade cut off essential supplies and up to 15,000 people died. A peace agreement signed with Papua New Guinea in 2001 paved the way for Bougainville’s 2019 independence referendum.
