Saudi Arabia is located in the west of Bahrain and can be connected via the King Fahd Bridge; Iran is in the north of Bahrain; the Qatar Peninsula is located on the southeast side of Bahrain Bay. The climate is tropical desert climate. In 2010, Bahrain had a total population of 1,234,571 people, including 666,172 foreigners.

Bahrain is the place where the Dilmen civilization has developed. In 628 AD, Bahrain became one of the first regions to be transformed into Islam. After a period of Arab rule, Portugal occupied Bahrain in 1521 and was expelled by Abbas the Great in Safi in 1602. In 1783, the Bani Uba captured Bahrain from the Qajar Dynasty and was ruled by the Al Khalifa family and ruled to this day. Ahmed Alphata was the first Hakim in Bahrain. In the late 19th century, Bahrain entered into a contract with the United Kingdom to become a British protectorate. In 1971, Bahrain declared independence as an emirate, and later in 2002 it was declared a kingdom. Since 2011, inspired by the Arab Spring, there has been a continuous protest movement in the country dominated by Shiites.

Bahrain is the first Persian Gulf country to enter the post-oil economy. At present, Bahrain’s economy is not dependent on oil. Since the late 20th century, Bahrain has invested heavily in banking and tourism. Manama, the capital of the country, is home to large financial institutions at home and abroad. Bahrain has a high human development index (ranked 44th in the world) and is recognized by the World Bank as a high-income economy. In 2001, Bahrain became a member of the main non-NATO ally, and the US Navy’s Fifth Fleet Command was stationed in Manama, constantly monitoring the Persian Gulf and the movements facing the ocean.
