B. Algeria
C. Niger
D. Sudan

Answer 1

Hint:
Libya has the tenth biggest proven oil reserves of any country in the world. Situated in western Libya, Tripoli, the largest city and capital, has over three million of Libya's seven million inhabitants.

Complete answer:
 In Al-Aziziyah, which lies in Libya, the highest reported temperature is around 58o C. It is situated approximately 25 miles south of Tripoli. On 13 September 1922, the World Meteorological Organization reported this temperature. This record was disqualified after exactly 90 years, on 13 September 2012. The highest temperature today has been recorded in Death Valley, California.

In the Maghreb region of North Africa, Libya, officially the State of Libya, is a country bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, Egypt to the east, Sudan to the southeast, Chad to the south, Niger to the southwest, Algeria to the west, and Tunisia to the northwest. Three historical regions constitute the sovereign state: Tripolitania, Fezzan and Cyrenaica.

The second-largest city is Benghazi, which is situated in eastern Libya. The Latin name Libya is based on the name of the region west of the Nile used by the Ancient Greeks and Romans for all of North Africa and was adopted again beginning in 1911 during the era of Italian colonisation.

Hence, the correct answer is option A.

Note:
The Libyan economy relies mainly on oil sector revenues, which account for over half of GDP and 97% of exports respectively. Libya holds Africa's largest proven oil reserves and is a significant contributor to the worldwide supply of high, sweet crude. Oil production accounted for 54 percent of GDP during 2010, when oil reached $80 a barrel.
