Tajura wa Arba‘ District
Tajura wa Arba' (Arabic: تاجوراء والنواحي الأربع Tarjūrāʾ wa an-Nawājī al-ʾArbaʿ) was one of the districts of Libya from 2001[1] to 2007. It consisted of eleven Basic People's Congresses,[1] similar to townships, and its capital was Tajura. In the 2007 administrative reorganization the territory formerly in Tajura Wa Al Nawahi AlArba' was transferred to the Tripoli District (Tarabulus District).[2]
