How did the public displays in Libya change after the uprising compared to during Gaddafi's regime?

During Gaddafi's regime in the 1980s and 1990s, Libya's public spaces were dominated solely by portraits of Muammar Gaddafi, reflecting the dictatorial nature of his rule where only his image was permitted to be displayed. In contrast, the 14th anniversary celebration in Tripoli's Martyr Square showcases a dramatic transformation, with thousands of citizens freely waving Libyan flags amid military parades and fireworks. This vibrant public gathering represents both the nation's liberation from dictatorship and the ongoing celebration of freedom that was impossible during Gaddafi's era.
