http://en.wikipedia....ention_in_Libya Here's some of the stats on the military operation in Libya that ousted Quaddafi.. At first i thought Libya was in the same location as ancient Carthage and thought it was pretty wild that Ancient Rome attacked pretty much the same area as what modern Nato (which contains many of the same geographical areas that ancient Rome controlled) attacked.. But the actual location of Carthage is in Tunisia which is the smaller neighbor directly to the west of Libya.. But for all you logistical nuts.. (maybe i'm the only one) enjoy the wikipedia fun facts of a small police engagement!
