United Arab Emirates: A Country Study is a comprehensive guide to the geography, history, culture, economy, and politics of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Written by the Federal Research Division, a division of the Library of Congress, this book provides a detailed overview of the UAE's society and government, including its political system, foreign relations, and military. It also examines the country's economy, including its oil industry, trade, and investment opportunities. The book explores the UAE's rich cultural heritage, including its art, music, and literature, as well as its modern society, which is characterized by rapid urbanization and social change. The book also includes a detailed bibliography and a glossary of terms, making it an invaluable resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in learning more about this fascinating country.THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES (UAE) in 1993 was a federation of seven separate amirates that had joined together in the winter of 1971-72 to form a single independent country. The new nation was created out of the British dependencies that had been known as the Trucial Coast states (also seen as Trucial Oman or Oman Coast) since 1853 when Britain and the local rulers signed the Treaty of Maritime Peace in Perpetuity, an agreement that ceded to London responsibility for foreign affairs. The individual amirates of the UAE include Abu Dhabi (also seen as Abu Zaby), Ajman, Al Fujayrah, Dubayy (also seen as Dubai), Ras al Khaymah, Sharjah (also seen as Ash Shariqah), and Umm al Qaywayn.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.
