Libya, also the State of Libya, is situated in the Maghreb region in North Africa. Algeria borders it in the west, Chad in the south, Egypt in the east, Sudan in the southeast, Niger in the southwest, Tunisia in the northwest, and the Mediterranean Sea in the north. It extends over 1,759,540 square kilometres, making it the 16th largest country in the world, the fourth largest in Africa, and the Arab World. The coastline is the longest in any African country, bordering the Mediterranean Sea. The capital and the largest city is Tripoli in the west of Libya, with more than three million of population. 

As Libya consists of large deserts, the climate is dry with dust-laden "sirocco," a warm and humid wind. There are dust storms and sandstorms. Ghadames and Kufra are some of the essential oases. As Libya has desertlike nature, it is one of the driest and sunniest countries in the world. Despite the desert environment, the northern areas have a mild Mediterranean climate. Libya is a large country with various weather patterns by region. The Mediterranean coastline is most visited by tourists, especially from June to October when the temperatures are benign, with an average of 27 °C (80 °F). The coastal area has hot and dry summers and mild winters. The deserts are scorching in the daytime and cold at night. Libya is rich in natural sources like petroleum, gas, and gypsum. The economy of Libya depends on the oil sector holding the largest proven oil reserves in Africa.

People & Culture of Libya

As many nations have invaded it, various civilizations have affected Libyan culture. The culture has roots in Berber, African, Turkish, and Arab cultures. Libya was a colony of Italy for three decades which influenced the country. Traditional folk culture is saved even if the country is a blend of various influences. The population mostly speaks Arabic, and the minority speaks English and Italian in tourist regions. The government is 90% desert, so most live in the coastline region. The Libyans are friendly and welcoming to tourists. Food serving is an integral part of the culture. Important guests are honoured with special and elaborate meals.
