[/qb][/QUOTE]In the 1580s, the rulers of Fezzan gave their allegiance to the sultan, and although Ottoman authority was absent in Cyrenaica, a bey was stationed in Benghazi late in the next century to act as agent of the government in Tripoli. European slaves and large numbers of enslaved blacks transported from Sudan were also a feature of everyday life in Tripoli. In 1551, Turgut Reis enslaved almost the entire population of the Maltese island of Gozo, some 6,300 people, sending them to Libya. Under Gaddafi, foreign workers accounted for about one quarter of Libya's six million population. Most came from Africa, poor immigrants seeking jobs in Libya's oil, agriculture or other sectors.
