September 1969
this year, it will be 42 years since he has been President of Libya
In 1970, Libya was under the rule of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, who had come to power in a coup in 1969. Gaddafi's government began implementing a series of socialist reforms, including the nationalization of oil resources, which significantly increased the country's wealth. The year also marked the beginning of Libya's shift towards a more authoritarian regime, with the establishment of the Revolutionary Committees to suppress dissent and promote Gaddafi's ideology. Additionally, Libya sought to enhance its influence in the Arab world and Africa, positioning itself as a leader in anti-imperialist movements.
Gaddafi has done noting wrong to the Libyan people. 97% of the population of Tripoly protested against NATO bombings, all pro Gaddafi. In return NATO carpet bombed them, hospitals etc.. Gaddafi came to power as hero of Libya and died as king of kings AFRICA. He did not spent money on weapons, instead he build an underground river turning dessert into farm land. 8 wonder of the world. Each citizen received 600 a month from oil revenue, education and healthcare free. Libya was debt free before NATO. Gaddafi still has 900 million Africans sharing his dreams who were almost a reality. God bless Gaddafi.

The first national flag of Libya, when it gained independence from Italy in the year of 1951, had three stripes, red on the top, black in the middle and green on the bottom. In the center of the flag, against the black stripe, there was a white crescent moon and star. When Gaddafi was in power, from 1977-2011, The Libyan flag was a green banner. (He was in power from 1969, but the flag was changed in 1977.) There are no logos, insignias or designs on this flag. It was the only flag in the world that is just one color with nothing else on it. The first national flag was used in this same period by Libyan opposition and monarchists. When Gaddafi's regime was overthrown and Gaddafi himself killed, Libya switched back to its first national flag.
Colonel Muammar Gaddafi was killed in his hometown of Sirte, Libya, on October 20, 2011, during the Libyan Civil War. His death occurred after NATO-backed rebel forces captured the city, leading to his capture while attempting to flee. Gaddafi was killed as he was being taken into custody, marking the end of his 42-year rule over Libya, which had been characterized by widespread repression and human rights abuses. His death symbolized the collapse of his regime and the broader Arab Spring movement across the region.
