'''S.S. Lazio''' ([[Italian language|Italian]]: ''Società Sportiva Lazio SpA'') is an [[Italy|Italian]] [[football (soccer)|football]] club based in [[Rome]]. They are known as the ''biancocelesti''. They play in light blue shirts, with white shorts and socks.
The '''2005 Lebanese General Elections''' were the first elections in thirty years without [[Syria|Syrian]] military in [[Lebanon]]. The Lebanese elected 128 [[Members of Parliament|MPs]], with equal representation for [[Christians]] and [[Muslims]].
 
The club was founded on January 9th 1900 as Società Podistica Lazio. The name Lazio was taken from the Latin word "Latium", that means "wide", meeting the aim of the founders to symbolize something that includes Rome, but which is not limited to Rome (in fact, Lazio is the name of [[Latium|the region where Rome lies]]). The sky blue and white strip colours were inspired by the [[Greece|Greek]] flag and the country which gave birth to Olympic tradition. At the very beginning of its history, the club ran a number of different sporting activities and, from 1902, the club started the football section.
==Results==
===First round===
The first round was held on [[May 30]] [[2005]] in [[Beirut]]. [[Saad Hariri]]'s list, son of former Lebanese Prime Minister [[Rafik Hariri]] who was assassinated in February 2005, won all 19 seats.
 
The club did not join the [[Italian Football League|league]] competition until 1913. They made the national decider a number of times but lost, often heavily - 9-1 on aggregate to Casale in 1914 and 6-1 on aggregate to [[Genoa 1893]] in 1923.
===Second round===
The second round was held on [[June 5]] in [[South Lebanon]] and [[Nabatyeh Governorate]]. The Resistance and Devlopment Bloc, a joint ticket by former rivals [[Amal Party (Lebanon)|Amal]] and [[Hezbollah]], won all 23 seats. Official tallies showed the Resistance and Devlopment Bloc receiving more than 80% of the vote. The head of Amal, Nabih Berri, said in a news conference held in Mosseileh: "The South has declared clearly and before international observers its backing for the resistance as a path for the past, present and future." Berri said the elected MPs would not let Hezbollah be disarmed. Newly elected Hezbollah MP, Mohammad Fneish, said laughingly: "I hope somebody would tell us what has happened to the U.S. ambassador after the results were announced."
 
The club played in the first [[Serie A]], but their highest pre-war finish was second in 1937. Post-war the club continued to fail in the league, but did win the [[Coppa Italia]] in 1958. However, they had to wait until 1974 for their first ''scudetto''.
===Third round===
The third round was held on [[June 12]] in [[Beqaa]] and [[Mount Lebanon]]. In Mount Lebanon the Hariri List and the [[Free Patriotic Movement]] won 17 seats each, while Hezbollah won one. In [[Beqaa]], the Resistance and Devlopment Bloc won 11 seats, the Hariri List eight, and the Free Patriotic Movement four.
 
However, when [[Sergio Cragnotti]] became president of the club, he was prepared to invest long-term in new players for the club. In 1993 Lazio finished fifth in Serie A, fourth in 1994, second in 1995, third in 1996, and fourth again in 1997 before winning the ''scudetto'' for the second time in 2000 with [[Sven-Göran Eriksson]] (1997-2001) as manager. They had Coppa Italia victories in 1998, 2000 and 2004 and they also won the last UEFA [[Cup Winners' Cup]] in 1999.
===Fourth round===
The fourth and final round was held on [[June 20]] in [[North Lebanon]]. The Hariri List won all 28 seats, giving them a total of 72 of the National Assembly's 128 seats.
 
But after a financial scandal which invested Cragnotti and his foodstuff multinational [[Cirio]], Lazio was controlled in 2004 by a bank pool, in order to be sold to enterpreneur [[Claudio Lotito]], who is the current team owner. The new season for Lazio brought away several strong team players, who were sold to make up the big deficit that regarded the team, which is quoted at the ''Piazza Affari'' Italian stock market. During this summer, former 36-year old Lazio star [[Paolo Di Canio]] accepted to join his favourite team one more time, giving up a much more worthwhile contract from his previous team [[Charlton Athletic F.C.|Charlton Athletic]].

The club plays at the 82,656 seater Stadio Olimpico, shared with [[A.S. Roma]]. The two teams play one another each year in the [[Rome derby]], a fiery, emotional match often marked with tension and fights in the stands. The two clubs have a history of rivalry; in the 2003 season an unprecedented event occurred when the [[A.S. Roma|Roma]] [[Ultras]] forced the game to be suspended after false rumours spread around the stadium that a child had been killed by the police prior to the beginning of the game. In the current 2004/2005 season, Lazio won the first leg of the derby 3-1, while the second leg was a 0-0 draw.
