Muammar Gadafy
Muammar Gadafy was the de facto leader of Libya from 1969 until his overthrow and death in 2011 during the Libyan Civil War. He was known for his autocratic rule and controversial policies, including his support for various militant groups and his attempts to unify Arab nations under a socialist framework. Gadafy's regime was marked by human rights abuses and the suppression of dissent. His involvement in international terrorism, particularly the 1988 Lockerbie bombing, led to Libya's isolation from the global community for many years. However, in the early 2000s, Gadafy sought to re-establish relations with Western nations and engage in economic reforms. His legacy remains highly contentious, and his actions have had a lasting impact on Libya and the broader Middle East.
