Historical Context

Libya gained independence in 1951 as a monarchy under King Idris I, becoming one of the world's poorest nations until oil was discovered in 1959. The kingdom lasted until 1969 when Muammar Gaddafi led a military coup, establishing a revolutionary government that lasted until 2011.
