The Libyan Arab Republic (LAR) (Arabic: الجمهورية العربية الليبية, romanized: al-Jumhūriyyah al-ʿArabiyyah al-Lībiyyah) was a short-lived country in North Africa that was established in September 1969 after a military coup d'état by Muammar Gaddafi. It existed until 2 March 1977, when Gaddafi transformed it into the "Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya".
