ArabDataNet in Dubai Directory

 

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is located on the cusp of the Arabian peninsula bordered by the Arabian Gulf to the north, Oman and the Gulf of Oman to the east, and Saudi Arabia to the south. This strategic position is of great benefit to the UAE, making the country a crucial center for trade. The country covers an area of 30,000 square miles, which is about the size of the state of Maine, and its climate is hot and humid, due to its arid desert environment and proximity to the Gulf. Since gaining independence in 1971 from the United Kingdom, the United Arab Emirates has developed a dynamic economy, with one of the highest per capita incomes in the world. The UAE has successfully implemented an economic diversification plan, boosting its industrial and service sectors in order to reduce its dependence on oil resources.
