Why Does Saudi Arabia Exist? | The Rise of the House of Saud

175,445 Views • Sep 6, 2021 • Click to toggle off description
Why is there a Kingdom of Saudi Arabia? For centuries, external powers lorded over the Arabian peninsula, but there was one place, its center, that outsiders could never control, at least not fully. There, Arab clans operated with significant autonomy, and the greatest among them was the House of Saud. After allying themselves with a new, and radical, religious sect, they would spend two centuries trying, with various degrees of success, to forge a powerful state for themselves in Arabia. All of which would culminate in the conquests of Abdulaziz bin Abdul Rahman Al Saud (better known in the West as Ibn Saud) who, after nearly 30 years of war, created Saudi Arabia in 1932.

Very important point that needs correction. The saudi monarch in the first and second state was called both Emir and Imam and in fact Imam is more emphasized. The monarch was both political and religious head. The clergys function was to support him. That changed in the third state. Abdulaziz was called Sultan "malik" king and Emir of various emirates and kingdoms until they were all united officially to form modern saudi arabia with abdulaziz taking the title of king.

As a Saudi I am grateful for King Abdulaziz and all the Arabian tribes fought with him to unite this desert that never saw such prosperity. You have to understand at that time people starved to death and the survival is for the stronger in the arabian desert during the otmans empire that didn’t do much for them. You would say it was the oil but oil wasn’t enough for unstable country. The country needed a visionary king rules by firm hands for Saudi to be what it became.

Fun Fact: The Al Saud are a section of the Anizah tribe, also the Al Sabah of Kuwait, and the Al Khalifah of the Bahrain. The approximate number of members of the tribe is 25 million, and the Al Rashid are from the Shammar tribe, and the approximate number is 20 million.

Hey man excellent video. To concisely cover what must have been a complicated series of political family dramas is nothing to sneeze at.
