Summary
DescriptionOttoman Provinces Of Present day Libya.png
English: The
Ottoman Turks conquered the country in the mid-16th century, and the three States or "
Wilayat" of
Tripolitania,
Cyrenaica and
Fezzan (which make up Libya) remained part of their empire with the exception of the virtual autonomy of the
Karamanlis. The Karamanlis ruled from 1711 until 1835 mainly in Tripolitania, but had influence in Cyrenaica and Fezzan as well by the mid 18th century.
