Tripoli A Land of Mystery and Strategic Value
Tripoli, a Turkish vilayet on Africa’s north coast, fronts Fezzan and the Sahara. Italy eyes it for trade, naval power, and caravan routes, while the United States once fought there. The city hosts a stern gate for outsiders and legends of exile, piracy, and ancient routes to Timbuktu and Kano.
