Kuwait A Country Study is a comprehensive book that provides an in-depth analysis of the history, culture, economy, and politics of Kuwait. Written by the Federal Research Division, a division of the Library of Congress, the book is designed to offer readers an authoritative and accessible introduction to this small but influential country. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the geography and climate of Kuwait, the country's history from ancient times to the present day, the role of Islam in Kuwaiti society, the economy and industry of Kuwait, and the political system and government of the country. The book also includes information on the Kuwaiti people, their customs and traditions, and their relationship with other countries in the region. With its detailed analysis and comprehensive coverage, Kuwait A Country Study is an essential resource for anyone interested in learning more about this important country.Foreign trade has always dominated Kuwait's economy. Before the discovery of oil, merchants developed large transshipment and reexport businesses that, along with the sale of pearls to foreign dealers, yielded a substantial part of the population's income. The discovery of large quantities of oil provided a new and increasingly important export because Kuwait needed only small amounts of oil products domestically.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
