Abstract  In this paper, the data recorded in the Global Terrorism Database from 2000 to 2018 are sorted out, and the damage degree and spatial-temporal evolution characteristics of the global terrorist attacks are discussed by using fuzzy comprehensive evaluation and K-Means clustering. The results show that:1) The most frequent years are 2010 and 2011, and the districts are South Asia, Middle East, and North Africa. While countries with the highest frequency are India, Iraq, Pakistan, etc, and the types of attacks are bombing/explosion; 2) The higher the damage degree, the higher the concentration degree of terrorist attacks. The first-level and second-level terrorist attacks are mainly distributed in the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia, while the third-level, fourth-level and fifth-level terrorist attacks are mainly distributed in South Asia, Middle East, North Africa and Southeast Asia; 3) It can be divided into three active regions in the Middle East, Central Asia and South Asia, nine secondary active regions such as Philippine Islands, and other risk regions such as Java and Sumatra. This paper has important reference for understanding the characteristics of terrorism resisting terrorism globally.
