Tripolitania

Historical region, North Africa, now northwestern Libya. Colonized by the Phoenicians in the 7th century BC, it was named for its three chief cities—Leptis Magna, Oea (Tripoli), and Sabrata. It comprised the eastern part of Carthaginian territory by the 3rd century BC. It came under Numidian chieftains in the mid-2nd century BC. After the Numidian War (46 BC), it was attached to the Roman province of Africa Nova (see Roman Africa). It was ruled by successive Arab and Berber dynasties before becoming part of the Ottoman empire in 1551. It became independent in 1711. As one of the Barbary Coast states, it plundered shipping in the Mediterranean, leading to the Tripolitan War with the U.S. (1801-5). It came under Turkish administration again in 1835. The Italians acquired the region in 1912. It was the scene of fierce fighting between British and German forces in 1942. In 1951, with the provinces of Cyrenaica and Fezzan, it formed the independent kingdom of Libya. The provinces were dissolved in 1963.
