'''Chouf''' (also spelled Shouf, Shuf or Chuf, in [[Arabic language|Arabic]] '''جبل الشوف''' ''Jebel ash-Shouf'') is a historical region of [[Lebanon]], and also an administrative [[Districts of Lebanon|district]] in the [[Governorates of Lebanon|governorate]] (mohafazat) of [[Mount Lebanon Governorate|Mount Lebanon]].
'''''Real Chance Of Love''''' is a reality television series on [[VH1]]. Bachelor brothers Real and Chance may not have been lucky in love on ''[[I Love New York (TV series)|I Love New York]]'' but now they will both get a second chance with “Real Chance of Love” premiering [[October 20]], [[2008]] at 9:00 PM ET/PT. The tables have turned for these horse-breeding, music-producing entertainer brothers known as the “Stallionaires.” Now, Real and Chance are the ones in control and this time it’ll be a gamble for 17 young ladies who will move into their ranch house to fight for their hearts. After getting dismissed by New York in I Love New York, Real and Chance are in it to win it this time around. And they are being extremely cautious before they choose their queen of hearts. To prevent getting dealt another bad hand, these ladies will have to lay all their cards on the table to impress these two guys. They will compete in challenges designed to test for the qualities Real and Chance are looking for in a woman. Each week, two women will be eliminated until the final episode when the guys will ultimately decide who they want to take a real chance of love with.


In this 9-episode series, these two brothers are certainly wild but in very different ways. Chance is a charming player who gets himself into trouble with his explosive personality. Real is the perfect gentleman with a romantic side he isn’t afraid to show. What these brothers are looking for in a woman is quite different, but in the end what the Stallionaires might want could be the same woman.
Located in the south-east of [[Beirut]], the historical region comprises a narrow coastal strip with notably the Christian town of [[Damour]] and the valleys and mountains of the western slopes of [[Jabal Barouk]], the name of the local Mount Lebanon massif. Chouf is the heartland of Lebanese [[Druze]] community, and Druze leader [[Walid Jumblatt]] resides in the Jumblatt palace in the town of [[Moukhtara]]. The Emirs of Lebanon used to have their residence in Chouf. Most notably, [[Bachir Chehab II]] built the magnificent palace of [[Beiteddine]] during the first half of the 19th century. Another historical town, just below Beiteddine, is [[Deir al Qamar]] (the monastery of the Moon).


== Contestants ==
Another large town in Chouf is called [[Baakline]].It used to be the capital of old Mountain of Lebanon, where Amir Fakher El-Deen was born. He was well liked by both Christians and Druze. He switched his residence to Deir al Qamar symbolizing his neutrality.


{| class="wikitable"
The Chouf is a living proof of the harmony between Maronite christians and Druze, but unfortunately they had violent clashes between them, in 1848, 1860 and most lately during the [[Lebanese Civil War]] in 1983-1984 ([[War of the Mountain]] - Harb el Jabal), The Progressive Socialist Party that is basically Druze versus the Lebanese Forces that is basically Maronite christians. Reconciliation between the Druze and Christian communities came to fruition on August 8, 2001 when the [[Maronite Patriarchs|Maronite Patriarch of Antioch]], [[Cardinal Mar Nasrallah Boutros Sfeir]] made a historic visit to the Chouf and met with Druze leader, Jumblatt. Today, the Christians and Druze of Lebanon are united and allies against foreign interference in their country, especially Syrian and Iranian.

==Call-out Order==
Despite a bloody history, the Chouf is one of the best-preserved Lebanese districts and its nature has been generally spared from the intense building frenzy that has spoiled neighbouring [[Metn]] and [[Kesrouan]]. The biggest forest of [[Lebanon Cedar|Cedars of Lebanon]] is found on the flanks of [[Jabal Barouk]].

==References==
Despite the historical feuds between Christian Maronites and Druze, the Chouf district is one of the most religiously diverse regions in Lebanon. The Druze, Maronite Catholics and Sunni Muslims are the largest religious groups, and are more or less evenly distributed throughout the district. Moreover, there is a substantial Greek Catholic population, as well as a smaller Shi'a Muslim population.
