Libya has a long history, and has been taken over by many nationalities, including Phoenecians and Punics, Greeks, Romans, Arabs, and Lazians. Through that period, the Berber people survived, now still representing a large minority of Libyans. Religions have fluctuated, too.

Over the next few centuries, it became largely Arabized, with some Berber holdouts. Then, in the 1500s, the Papal States gained power and converted (forcibly or not) most of the population to Catholic Christianity. However, some Muslims remained in the Fezzan region. Libya was directly ruled by the pope until the Republic of Lazio was formed and took Libya as a colony with it. Finally, in 1947, Libya was free from Lazio, and in 1951 became self-governing.
