Sabha or Sebha ((アラビア語:سبها) ''Sabhā'') is a city in southwestern Libya with a population of about 130,000. It was historically the capital of the Fezzan region and the Military Territory of Fezzan-Ghadames and is now capital of the Sabha District. Sabha is about south of Tripoli.〔Walt, Vivienne.

Retrieved on November 19, 2011.〕 ==Overview== With a relatively large population, and growing fast, Sabha's importance is due to its being the air and road transport hub of the Fezzan, a military base, and the centre of a remarkable agricultural industry in the desert. Sabha is famous for the Fort Elena castle,〔Martin, B. G. (1984) "Ahmad Rasim Pasha and the Fazzan Slave Trade, 1881-1896" (pp. 64-65 ) ''in'' Willis, John Ralph (ed.) (1984) ''Slaves and Slavery in Muslim Africa: The Servile Estate'' Cass, London, pp. 51-82, ISBN 0-7146-3201-5〕 which is the castle featured on the reverse of the ten dinars banknote of Libya. Fort Elena was previously known as Fortezza Margherita, built during the Italian colonial period. Currently the Italian-built fort is a military institution. Sabha is known as the place where Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi announced "the dawn of the era of the masses". 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「Sabha, Libya」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
