Mouammar Kadhafi
Mouammar Kadhafi was the Libyan revolutionary leader who ruled Libya from 1969 until his overthrow and death in 2011. His regime was characterized by authoritarianism, a unique political philosophy called the Third International Theory, and significant oil wealth, which he used to promote his vision of Pan-Arabism and support various militant groups worldwide. Kadhafi's controversial leadership style and human rights abuses made him a polarizing figure on the global stage. His alleged involvement in financing foreign political campaigns, including that of Nicolas Sarkozy, has led to ongoing scrutiny even after his death.
