Blood diamonds have many names. They are
sometimes called conflict diamonds, war diamonds, converted diamonds, and hot
diamonds, but are most
commonly known as blood diamonds and two-thirds of the
world’s diamonds are these extracted diamonds. The countries that have this
violent industry include Angola, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Ivory Coast, The
Republic of Congo, and Zimbabwe. These dangerous diamonds get their name because
the diamonds are mined in a war zone and are sold to finance many of the
rebellions, invading armies, and warlords in Africa. These
diamonds affect the miners, civilians, and soldiers in these countries.
