Kfaraakka
[3][4] The village of Kfaraakka derives its name from the Aramaic language, composed of two words: Kafar and Aka.Many problems occurred between Kfarakka Citizens and the Algerians, Senegalese and Moroccans inductees in the French army.General de Gaulle has visited Kfarakka several times, especially the area of “Al Bader”, to meet the French soldiers.On 11 July 1984, pro-Syrian Marada Militia ousted SSNP and took control of Kfarakka until the end of the civil war in 1990.The two contending lists were "Kafaraka brings us together" headed by Elias Sassine and backed by the Lebanese Forces, Tayyar and Kataeb, "Kafaraka is my town and my belonging" headed by Philipe Fares Boulos and backed by Marada, SSNP and Deputy Speaker Farid Makari.
