History Dubai
Dubai’s History can be traced way back 3000
years. In 1833, Al Maktoum dynasty of
the Bani Yas tribe captured Dubai and then Dubai became an independent
emirate. And December 1971 formed the United Arab Emirates after Britain left
the Persian Gulf, in 1973 the emirates got their own currency.
The major turning point of Dubai history is
when they found oil in 1966, Dubai then created their own currency. Once the
first shipment was made that was then the future of Dubai was secured.
The formation of UAE happened after the
Britain left the Persian Gulf in 1973, causing Dubai and Abu Dhabi and 5 other
emirates to unite, but Dubai and Aby Dhabi secured negotiations that they could
control the country effectively and that enabled the great expansion that is
seen today in Dubai. This means that only Abu Dhabi and Dubai only have the
rights to have vote power of nation importance where other emirates have vote
rights for other matters.
From the death of Sheikh Rashid Al-Maktoum
made the accession of Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid Al Khartoum to the throne. In
1990 there was a war between which is the Persian Gulf War which made Dubai as
part of UAE provided soldiers as well to aid the coalition as well as the
unsettled economy, but during the 1990s many foreign trading communities and
moved their business to Dubai, and from there on the Dubai has become a
business center from all over the world. There was then the global increase of
oil and the success of Jenel Ali free zone.
You can still taste the history of Dubai in

Dubai.
Now today Dubai owns the largest shopping
mall, tallest building, and the first man made islands, as well as the most
beautiful airport in the world. And Dubai’s economy is based on tourism and
therefore the vision of Sheikh Al Maktoum has come true.
Visions of Dubai has always been great
since Sheik Mohammed’s father saw the potential for the region. In the 60’s
they discovered oil and it became a foundation for their wealth and vision. In
combination of the creation of 7 emirates that happened in 1971 formed the
United States of Emirates, which each leader created a ministry which they call
the Board, Here are Abu Dhabi’s leader which is in the highest position, Each
individual emirates Sheik is in control of his own region. Sheik Mohammed has
put Dubai on everyone’s lips with his outgoing projects.
