History of Mu'ammar Muhammad Abu Minyar Gaddafi

It is Muammar Gaddafi, who presided over Libya from 1942 until October 20, 2011; his Arabic name is Muammar al-Gaddafi.

He was a politician, a combatant, and a supporter of his people in Libya. He is best known by the names Colonel Gaddafi or Gaddafi.

From 1969 to 1977, he presided over Libya as the coup's leader, establishing the Libyan Arab Republic in English. From 1977 to 2011, he was known as President Dan'uwa, the "Brotherly Leader" of the Great People's Party, also known as the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya.

Gaddafi had backed the advancement of the Arab people, but it is now clear that he later turned away from this and started to hold his own beliefs.

From February 2, 2009, to January 31, 2010, Gaddafi served as the head of the African Union (AU), among other posts both inside and beyond his own nation. Gaddafi is a Muslim and a Sunni Muslim who attended the Benghazi Military University and the University of Libya, respectively.

Gaddafi was born into a low-income Arab herding family not far from the town of Sirte.

He served in the military and joined the gang that, in 1969, toppled the Western European government in the nation that had been utilising the reigning monarch at the time, Senussi Mulkin Idris.

Gaddafi transformed Libya from a monarchy to a republic under his control after seizing power.

From there, he evicted all the Italians and Europeans stationed in the country and advocated for the unification of African nations. He also reinforced his ties with other Arab nations, particularly with President Gamal Abdel Nasser of Egypt (Egypt).

Gaddafi adopted the Islamic political structure and made Sharia the supreme law of the land.

He made the government the owner of the nation's oil wealth and utilised the proceeds to bolster the armed forces of both his country and other nations, as well as to aid in the construction of homes, hospitals, schools, and other infrastructure.

In 1977, Gaddafi reorganised Libya into a "Republic"—an English term that implies "state of the masses"—government.

The Lockerbie bombing in Scotland and the border conflict with Egypt and Chad in the 1970s and 1980s that involved the use of foreign fighters made Libya an outcast in the international community.
