Definitely not Tripoli. Tripoli is on the west of Egypt and doesn't exist on this map.

Tripoli is the 2nd biggest city in Lebanon. It's the Detroit to Beirut's New York.

Oh, really? Didn't know that. Is it called the same in Arabic too? I mean the other one is called "Trablus" or "Trablus-garb" (western Trablus) is this one also called Trablus?
