The House of Shennib ((アラビア語:بيت شنيب) ''Bayt Shennib'') is one of Libya's prominent families. The House of Shennib includes notable public figures who have played a significant part in 20th century Libyan history: heads of state, ministers, authors and diplomats. The family's history is intrinsically tied with the creation of the State of Libya with members of Bayt Shennib playing prominent roles in the defeat of colonial Italian Libya, the creation of the unified Libyan state after WWII.〔Omar Al Mukhtar Historical Society, Historical Archive,〕 The most notable members of the family include Omar Faiek Shennib, Ahmed Fouad Shennib, Wanis al-Qaddafi (no relation to Muamar Gaddafi) and Abdul-Aziz Shennib. The historical seat of Bayt Shennib is Derna, Cyrenaica. On April 3, 2013 the family's significant contributions to the Libyan people were publicly recognized by the current Libyan government and their honors restored, if in name only.〔Omar Al Mukhtar Historical Society, Official Publication, 4 April 2013〕 The area of Bi'r`Ayt Shinnib west of Derna is named after the family. ==Omar Faiek Shennib== Omar Faiek Shennib ((アラビア語:سيدعمر الفايق شنيب) ''Sayyid Omar Fayek Shennib'')〔Developments of the Quarter: Comment and Chronology Middle East Journal, Vol. 5, No. 3 (Summer, 1951), pp. 337-352〕 was Libya's first Minister of Defense, Head of the Royal Court (Diwan), Vice President of the Libyan National Assembly 〔Developments of the Quarter: Comment and Chronology, Middle East JournalVol. 7, No. 4 (Autumn, 1953), pp. 504-519.〕 under the reign of King Idris Al Senussi. Sayyid Omar Shennib was the patriarch of the current House of Shennib. Shennib served as President of the Cyrenaican delegation to the United Nations in the post-war period and was instrumental in the creation of a unified Libyan state in the years immediately following WWII following the withdrawal of Axis forces from the North African coast.〔Fadhel Jamali, Mohommed. ‘Arab Struggle; Experiences of Mohammed Fadhel Jamali.’ Widener Library, Harvard University. WID-LC DS 7953.J34 1974x http://www.physics.harvard.edu/~wilson/Fadhel.html〕 Together with Idris, Shennib was part of the 1941 delegation to the UN which put forth the case for the unification of the three traditional free standing regions, Cyrenaica, Tripolitania and Fezzan into the single nation state of Libya. Following independence on 24 December 1951, he was appointed Head of the Royal Court (the Royal Diwan) 〔Simons, Geoffrey Leslie. ''Libya: the struggle for Survival'' pp.155〕 Sayyid Omar Shennib served as Vice President of the Libyan National Assembly until his death and was a signatory to the first Libyan Constitution.〔Chronology of International Events and Documents, Royal Institute of International Affairs. Vol. 7, No. 8 (5–18 April 1951), pp. 213-244〕 Omar Faiek Shennib Shennib Street in Derna and Benghazi were named after Shennib posthumously. Omar Faiek Shennib died in 1951. Omar Faiek Shennib is credited for the design of the independence Flag of Libya: this flag represented Libya from its independence until 1951 to 1969, and which was adopted by the pro-democracy movement during the 2011 uprising.〔http://24dec1951.com/libya/national-flag-of-libya.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「House of Shennib」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
