Tajura ((アラビア語:تاجوراء) ), also spelt ''Tajoura'', is a town in north-western Libya, and baladiyah in the Tripoli Muhafazah, on the Mediterranean coast east of Tripoli.〔Ham, Anthony (2002) "East of Tripoli: Tajura to Al-Khoms" ''Libya'' Lonely Planet, Hawthorn, Victoria, Canada, (page 133 ), ISBN 0-86442-699-2〕 From 2001 to 2007 Tajura was the capital of the Tajura wa Arba' District. Tajura is also known to be the most anti-Gaddafi district in Tripoli and had high casualties in the Libyan Civil War. ==History== The Ottoman Turks established a base at Tajura in 1531.〔Abun-Nasr, Jamil M. (2005) ''A history of the Maghrib in the Islamic period'' (page 192 )〕 Under the command of Khayr al-Din, the site was selected for its proximity to Tripoli which had come under the Knights of Malta in 1530 when Charles V of Spain, as King of Sicily, had given them Tripoli, Gozo and Malta. Tripoli was captured in the Siege of Tripoli. Tajura was the center of Libya's nuclear research, with a 10 megawatt reactor, built by the Soviet Union, which came online in 1981.〔Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (2005) ''SIPRI Yearbook 2005: Armaments, disarmament and international security'' Humanities Press, New York, (page 636 ), 〕 During the second Libyan Civil War, Tajura has become associated with the insurgency of 101 Battalion. 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「Tajura」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
