Lebanon one of the Arab country located in the Middle East with the famous capital is Beirut some people named this city the Paris of East. It's surrounded by five countries Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Israel and Cyprus. It was called in bible the city of milk and honey.
However, Lebanon gained independence from France In 1943. In that time the Christians Lebanese held the balance of power and the Muslims had little in the running of their country. The tensions started between the Christians and Muslims in 1975 when a member of radical Christian group attacked and killed a bus full of Palestinians in Beirut. After that the revenge killing and violence began to spread out of control all over the country. Then in 1982 the Israeli army attacked and invaded Beirut to remove the PLO Palilestinian Liberation Organization because the PLO organization was launched attacks against targets in Israel. The civil war in Lebanon ended in 1989 by Lebanese leaders by an equal offering a balance between Muslims and Christian in a new Lebanese parliament.

Finally, the recovering of the country is started from the war. And Beirut became one of the top cities in the world for the number of cars with the great night life and the most important thing it’s become the great city for tourist.
