Libyan Olympic Committee
The Libyan Olympic Committee was founded in 1962 and is the national body responsible for promoting and coordinating Olympic sports in Libya. It has faced challenges due to political instability in the country, including suspensions by the International Olympic Committee at various points in its history.
Tripoli
Tripoli is the capital and largest city of Libya, located on the country’s Mediterranean coast. Historically, it was founded by the Phoenicians in the 7th century BC and later became a significant Roman city, with its ancient core, the medina of Tripoli, showcasing layers of influence from subsequent Arab, Ottoman, and Italian colonial rule.
Olympic Radio
Olympic Radio was a major department store in Athens, Greece, known for its distinctive modernist architecture and as a landmark of the city’s commercial life from its opening in 1961. It was designed by architect Emmanouil Vourekas and became a symbol of post-war economic growth and modernization before closing in the early 2000s.
