Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary:
Lebanon
white, "the white mountain of Syria," is the loftiest and most
celebrated mountain range in Syria. It is a branch running
southward from the Caucasus, and at its lower end forking into
two parallel ranges, the eastern or Anti-Lebanon, and the
western or Lebanon proper. They enclose a long valley (Josh.
11:17) of from 5 to 8 miles in width, called by Roman writers
Coele-Syria, now called el-Buka'a, "the valley," a prolongation
of the valley of the Jordan.
Lebanon proper, Jebel es-Sharki, commences at its southern
extremity in the gorge of the Leontes, the ancient Litany, and
extends north-east, parallel to the Mediterranean coast, as far
as the river Eleutherus, at the plain of Emesa, "the entering of
Hamath" (Num. 34:8; 1 Kings 8:65), in all about 90 geographical
miles in extent. The average height of this range is from 6,000
to 8,000 feet; the peak of Jebel Mukhmel is about 10,200 feet,
and the Sannin about 9,000. The highest peaks are covered with
perpetual snow and ice. In the recesses of the range wild beasts
as of old still abound (2 Kings 14:9; Cant. 4:8). The scenes of
the Lebanon are remarkable for their grandeur and beauty, and
supplied the sacred writers with many expressive similes (Ps.
29:5, 6; 72:16; 104:16-18; Cant. 4:15; Isa. 2:13; 35:2; 60:13;
Hos. 14:5). It is famous for its cedars (Cant. 5:15), its wines
(Hos. 14:7), and its cool waters (Jer. 18:14). The ancient
inhabitants were Giblites and Hivites (Josh. 13:5; Judg. 3:3).
It was part of the Phoenician kingdom (1 Kings 5:2-6).
The eastern range, or Anti-Lebanon, or "Lebanon towards the
sunrising," runs nearly parallel with the western from the plain
of Emesa till it connects with the hills of Galilee in the
south. The height of this range is about 5,000 feet. Its highest
peak is Hermon (q.v.), from which a number of lesser ranges
radiate.
Lebanon is first mentioned in the description of the boundary
of Palestine (Deut. 1:7; 11:24). It was assigned to Israel, but
was never conquered (Josh. 13:2-6; Judg. 3:1-3).
The Lebanon range is now inhabited by a population of about
300,000 Christians, Maronites, and Druses, and is ruled by a
Christian governor. The Anti-Lebanon is inhabited by
Mohammedans, and is under a Turkish ruler.

Introduction Lebanon
--------------------
Background: Lebanon has made progress toward
rebuilding its political
institutions since 1991 and the end
of the devastating 16-year civil
war. Under the Ta'if Accord - the
blueprint for national
reconciliation - the Lebanese have
established a more equitable
political system, particularly by
giving Muslims a greater say in the
political process while
institutionalizing sectarian
divisions in the government. Since
the end of the war, the Lebanese
have conducted several successful
elections, most of the militias have
been weakened or disbanded, and the
Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) have
extended central government
authority over about two-thirds of
the country. Hizballah, the radical
Shi'a party, retains its weapons.
Syria maintains about 20,000 troops
in Lebanon based mainly in Beirut,
North Lebanon, and the Bekaa Valley.
Syria's troop deployment was
legitimized by the Arab League
during Lebanon's civil war and in
the Ta'if Accord. Damascus justifies
its continued military presence in
Lebanon by citing Beirut's requests
and the failure of the Lebanese
Government to implement all of the
constitutional reforms in the Ta'if
Accord. Israel's withdrawal from its
security zone in southern Lebanon in
May of 2000, however, has emboldened
some Lebanese Christians and Druze
to demand that Syria withdraw its
forces as well.

Economy Lebanon
---------------
Economy - overview: The 1975-91 civil war seriously
damaged Lebanon's economic
infrastructure, cut national output
by half, and all but ended Lebanon's
position as a Middle Eastern
entrepot and banking hub. Peace
enabled the central government to
restore control in Beirut, begin
collecting taxes, and regain access
to key port and government
facilities. Economic recovery was
helped by a financially sound
banking system and resilient small-
and medium-scale manufacturers.
Family remittances, banking
services, manufactured and farm
exports, and international aid
provided the main sources of foreign
exchange. Lebanon's economy made
impressive gains since the launch in
1993 of "Horizon 2000," the
government's $20 billion
reconstruction program. Real GDP
grew 8% in 1994, 7% in 1995, 4% in
1996 and in 1997 but slowed to 2% in
1998, -1% in 1999, and -0.5% in
2000. Growth recovered slightly in
2001 to 1%. During the 1990s annual
inflation fell to almost 0% from
more than 100%. Lebanon has rebuilt
much of its war-torn physical and
financial infrastructure. The
government nonetheless faces serious
challenges in the economic arena. It
has funded reconstruction by
borrowing heavily - mostly from
domestic banks. The re-installed
HARIRI government has failed to rein
in the ballooning national debt.
Without large-scale international
aid and rapid privatization of
state-owned enterprises, markets may
force a currency devaluation and
debt default in 2002.
