BY BRITNEY PHEKOO PERIOD 2 Libya The Fight For Freedom

Libya Libya is located in the northern part of Africa. West of Egypt and east of Algeria and borders the Mediterranean Sea.

Demographics Life expectancy at birth- Men: 71.7Females: 76.9 Foreign population- Around 3% most of the foreigners are migrant oil industry workers, however a majority of these workers left Libya because of the Libyan civil war Official language- Arabic

Leader in Libya Muammar Gaddafi Was the ruler of Libya from 1969 to 2011 Established laws based political ideology, later developed authoritarian regime, and monopolized economy Gaddafi believed in very harsh punishment, killed protesters. Did nothing about the high unemployment rate During the Battle of Tripoli, Gaddafi lost effective political and military control of Tripoli after his compound was captured by rebel forces

Leaders Gaddafi’s regime did nothing to help the people of Libya. In fact it made things worse by doing nothing to help the low wages and censored a lot of Libya’s press Gaddafi also supported anti-American government organizations Rebels- mostly citizens who fought to free the country from Gaddafi’s regime. They also fought to take key positions around Libya.

Key Events On February 15, political protests began in Libya against Gaddafi's government On February 17, Day of Revolt On February 26, The United Nations Security Council passed an initial resolution, freezing the assets of Gaddafi and his circle and restricting their travel In August 2011, rebel forces took most of their lost territory, and captured Tripoli On October 20, 2011, Gaddafi was killed. On October 23, 2011, The National Transitional Council declared the liberation of Libya and the official end of the war

Similarities Both the Libyan and American Revolutions emerged as a result of differences with their leaders. In American their was conflict between the colonies and England. In the Libyan Revolution their was conflict between the Rebels/citizens and Gaddafi. Both revolutions were against their leader Gaddafi or King George III Both Revolutions received aid from outside countries. The Libyan rebels received help from the NATO and France transferred Gaddafi funds to the Libyan rebels. The American Revolution receives outside help from France. Both Revolutions attempted peaceful protests, then they used military to overthrow the oppressive government. Both Libyan and American Revolutions wanted involvement in the government and the government’s decision making.

Differences While the Libyan rebels wanted to and succeeded in overthrowing their government leader, Gaddafi. Where initially the Americans did not want to stop their interaction with the British Empire.  The Americans fought their revolution because of taxation without representation, as opposed to the Libyan Revolution which was fought against the fear of the oppressive leader, Muammar Gaddafi.  The Libyans were against their own government, this differs from the American Revolution because the Americans were rebelling against the British Empire.

Future of Libya  With Gaddafi died I believe that Libya will slowly recover. It will defiantly be a challenge to find a new ruler especially since Libya hasn’t had a new ruler since If Libya has a lot of determination and receives outside help from other countries I think that it will be able establish some sort of democratic government. Either way Libya will be better than it’s rule under Gaddafi.
