Sarra Triangle

The Sarra Triangle is a strip of land, today located in the Kufra District of Libya, originally colonized by the British. In 1934, an agreement was struck between the United Kingdom and the Kingdom of Italy, ceding the territory to the Italian colony in Libya, as an attempt at cheap appeasement. The land is home to a minor oasis called Ma'tan as-Sarra.
