LIBYA Was it worth the struggle? Katie Brough period 6

LOCATION Libya is located in Africa. It is East of Algeria, West of Egypt and North of Niger and Chad.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION The revolution in Libya began in February After a 40 year rule by Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, the revolution took his power in August On October 20, 2011, Gaddafi was beaten and murdered when revolutionaries took control of Surt, his hometown. Libya was officially liberated on October 23, 2011.

LEADERS The revolution began because the people of Libya wanted to remove Col. Muammar Gaddafi from power. Ali Abdullah is the head of the local revolutionary council. Mizda is a town south of the Nafusa mountains. A main tribe from Mizda is the Guntrar tribe. This tribe set up security checkpoints and were big supporters of the revolution

SIMILARITIES TO AMERICAN REVOLUTION Many of the people of Libya were not aware that the revolution was going on. It took a while for news of the revolution to spread as it did in the Americas. Also, many people in Libya did not believe there were problems with Gaddafi until the rebels explained the problems. Many people in the Americas did not mind the problems with British rule until their leaders pointed them out.

SIMILARITIES TO AMERICAN REV. CON’T People who were not involved in the revolution ended up losing more from it then people who were involved. Taxes went up and there was fighting going on everywhere making it dangerous.

DIFFERENCES TO AMERICAN REVOLUTION Many of the people of Libya did not see an upside to the revolution. American people knew they were fighting for their independence from the British. There are not many Libyans who remained loyal to Gaddafi. Unlike the American loyalists who supported the British in the Revolutionary War.

THE LIBYAN DIRECTION Libya will probably head into another revolution or into a civil war. The overthrow of Gaddafi left Libya without a strong, central leader. Until a new leader is found the country will not act united and will continue rebelling. As Anne Applebaum put it, “Even wars that end with solemn surrender ceremonies and elaborate peace treaties sometimes have unexpected afterlives. World War I begat World War II, World War II begat the Cold War, the Cold War begat the Korean War and so on.”
