Understanding Hooliganism: Definition, History, and Examples

Hooligans are a group of people who engage in violent or destructive behavior, often during sports events or political rallies. They may fight with other groups, damage property, and disrupt the peace. The term "hooligan" originated in England in the late 19th century to describe working-class youths who would engage in rowdy and destructive behavior, particularly during soccer matches. Today, the term is used more broadly to describe any group of people who engage in violent or disruptive behavior.
