Muammar Khadafi
Muammar Khadafi was a Libyan revolutionary and politician who ruled Libya from 1969 until his overthrow in 2011. Known for his authoritarian regime and eccentric personality, Khadafi implemented a range of socialist policies and sought to position Libya as a leader in the Arab world. His rule was marked by human rights abuses and tensions with Western nations, particularly due to his support for terrorism. Khadafi's regime faced widespread protests during the Arab Spring, leading to a civil war and ultimately his death at the hands of rebel forces. His legacy remains controversial, with debates surrounding his impact on Libya and the region.
