📅 24 Desèmber 1951 📍 International, Libia

Libya became independent after being an Italian colony and then administered by Britain and France following the Second World War. A 1949 UN resolution directed that the country become independent and sovereign by 1 January 1952. The process made Libya a rare case of UN-supervised independence, but colonial war damage, foreign military interests, and economic dependence continued to shape the new state.
