Libya Independence Day is observed on December 24 every year. In 1951, Libya gained independence from France and Britain after the U.N. General Assembly voted that Libya become independent on or before January 1, 1952. A constitution was drawn up and King Idris I declared the country independent. Previously, Libya was divided between Britain and France after Italy was ousted from the country. Before Italy, however, Libya was under the rule of the Ottoman empire. The independence of Libya in 1951 launched the country into a new era of its own politics and economy.
