Basic People's Congress (country Subdivision)
Basic People's Congress ( ar, مؤتمر شعبي أساسي, Mu'tamar shaʿbi asāsi) was the smallest administrative division in Libya under the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya from 1977 to 2011. Geographically it corresponded approximately to the level of a township or borough. During Muammar Gaddafi's rule, political caucuses and committees of the Basic People's Congress operated at this level.Vandewalle, Dirk J. (1998) ''Libya since independence: oil and state-building'' I B Tauris, London, pp. 95-97, Representatives from the Basic People's Congresses regulated operations at the higher shabiyah (district) level.

Districts Of Libya
In Libya there are currently 106 districts, second level administrative subdivisions known in Arabic as ''baladiyat'' (singular ''baladiyah''). The number has varied since 2013 between 99 and 108. The first level administrative divisions in Libya are currently the governorates (''muhafazat''), which have yet to be formally deliniated, but which were originally tripartite as: Tripolitania in the northwest, Cyrenaica in the east, and Fezzan in the southwest; and later divided into ten governorates. Prior to 2013 there were twenty-two first level administrative subdivisions known by the term ''shabiyah'' (Arabic singular ''šaʿbiyya'', plural ''šaʿbiyyāt'') which constituted the districts of Libya. In the 1990s the shabiyat had replaced an older baladiyat system. Historically the area of Libya was considered three provinces (or states), Tripolitania in the northwest, Cyrenaica in the east, and Fezzan in the southwest. It was the conquest by Italy in the Italo-Turkish War ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
