UAE National Day 2021

Google Dooles 02.12.2021 01:15  Date: December 2, 2021 Exactly 50 years ago today, leaders of the six Emirates of Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Umm Al Quwain, Fujairah, and Ajman came together in Dubai to form the world’s first Arab federation. The seventh emirate—Ras Al Khaimah—joined the alliance three months later in 1972, officially establishing the modern day United Arab Emirates. Although the UAE is a relatively new country, the largely desert region on the coast of the Persian Gulf has an ancient foundation built on agriculture and fishing. The unification of the UAE’s independent emirates has allowed the nation to tap into its natural resources, transforming the newly established country over the past half-century. Traditionally, both private and public buildings are decorated with red, white, and green, representing the colors of the national flag, depicted in the Doodle artwork. Many of the over 200 nationalities that call the UAE home celebrate the achievements of the nation while looking forward to the future. Happy National Day, UAE! Location: Tags: , , , ,
