Saudi Arabia

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) is the ancestral homeland of the Arabs, the birthplace of the Arabic language, and more importantly, the historic centre of Islam. Saudi Arabia is noted for its oil, Arabian horses, the world's biggest sand desert, Rub' Al Khali, the world's largest oasis, Al-Ahsa, Arabian coffee, enormous palaces and mosques, and Bedouins on horses and camels performing breathtaking falconry and sword-wielding dance manoeuvres. Saudi Arabia, also home to two of the world's holiest cities, invites you to its fascinating oasis of culture and legacy.

**History of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia**

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia may trace its origins to the Arabian Peninsula's ancient civilisations. As an old commercial centre and the home of Islam, the peninsula has played a crucial part in history over the ages. The history of Saudi Arabia began on September 23, 1932, when the twin kingdoms of Hejaz and Najd with their dependencies, managed as two independent nations since 1927, were merged under the name of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia by royal order of King Abdulaziz. King Abdulaziz was a visionary who put Saudi Arabia on the path to modernity. He began constructing the country's infrastructure throughout his reign. He built roads and basic communications networks, introduced modern technologies, and made improvements in education, healthcare, and agriculture. Since then, the Kingdom has transformed itself from a desert to a modern, sophisticated state and a key participant on the world scene in just a few decades.
