AI overview
Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (ETA) was an armed group that fought for Basque independence from Spain between 1959 and 2018, carrying out bombings and assassinations that killed hundreds of people. It matters historically because it was one of Europe's longest-running militant organizations and its dissolution marked a significant shift in the Basque independence movement away from violence.
