About AssassinationDB

AssassinationDB covers 115 documented assassinations from the ancient world to the twenty-first century: heads of state, politicians, activists, religious figures, and cultural figures whose deaths changed or reflected their times. Entries give the year, the perpetrators where established, the context, the event, the fate of the killers where documented, and the historical consequences. The collection is presented in a strictly factual, encyclopedic tone, without glorification or graphic detail, as a study of how political violence has intersected with the course of history.
