HISTORY OF SAUDI ARABIA.



SAUDI ARABIA



Saudi Arabia is a country located in the Middle East. It has a long and rich history dating back to ancient times. The region that is now Saudi Arabia was once home to a number of ancient civilizations, including the Nabataeans, who built the city of Petra.

In modern times, Saudi Arabia was unified as a single country in 1932 by King Abdulaziz Al Saud, who is considered the founder of the modern Saudi state. Prior to this, the region was made up of a number of separate tribal territories.

Since its unification, Saudi Arabia has become an important player in the Middle East and a major oil-producing country. It is known for its strict interpretation of Islam, and its legal system is based on sharia law. The country has faced criticism for its treatment of women and its human rights record. In recent years, the government has implemented a number of reforms, including allowing women to drive and opening up the country to more tourists.
