Muammar Gaddafi: The Rise and Fall of Libya's Most Infamous Dictator

Muammar Gaddafi's story spans 42 years of absolute rule — from a charismatic desert Bedouin to one of the most polarizing dictators in modern history. This documentary-style breakdown traces his dramatic rise to power through Libya's bloodless 1969 coup, the transformation of the country using vast oil wealth, and the construction of his bizarre, brutal regime under the Third International Theory. The video also examines his notorious sponsorship of global terrorism, the deep geopolitical tensions he created with Western powers, and the violent collapse of his government during the 2011 Arab Spring uprising that ultimately ended his four-decade grip on Libya. #Gaddafi #LibyaHistory #ArabSpring #Dictatorship #AfricanHistory #Lykstage #LykstageVideo #LykstageCreator #LykstageCommunity
