<p>The Foreign and Commonwealth Office advise against 'all travel' or 'all but essential
travel' to a particular place if we consider the risk to British nationals is unacceptably
high. In the case of terrorism we advise against travel in situations of extreme and
imminent danger, where the threat is sufficiently specific, large-scale or endemic
to affect British nationals severely. Prior to 2001 our records are in an archive
and not immediately available, but in 2001 we advised against 'all travel' to parts
of Somalia; as well as against 'all travel' to Afghanistan and the Democratic Republic
of Congo. Advice against 'all travel' to parts of these countries has been in place
ever since, though the specific areas to which this has applied have changed many
times. We keep all of our advice, including the areas where we advise against travel,
under constant review.</p>
