Founded on May 26, 1981, GCC aimed to promote coordination between its member states.3 In 2003, approximately four million people lived in the UAE, with about one quarter residing in Dubai (835,000 men and 369,000 women).4 This population was predominantly not indigenous as 60% hailed from Asia, 15% came from other Arab countries, and 5% were from Europe. All key positions in the Dubai government however were occupied by members of a ruling family—their authority unchallenged by political parties or universal suffrage.5 While the ruling family tolerated non-Muslim religions, the preaching of any expression of religion other than Islam was forbidden as was the formation of trade unions.

Dubai is one of the seven Emirates in the United Arab Emirates, which is located in the Persian Gulf. Dubai is a city founded by Ubaid bin Saeed and Maktoum bin Butti Al Maktoum. It’s national independence day is the second of December. It’s know as the biggest metropolitan in the Middle East, and known as one of the biggest business hubs in the Middle East, a station for transporting passengers and cargos. Its official language is Arabic, and many of the school in the country has compulsory Arabic classes for the students as the government makes it to be. However, as the city has a lot of expatriates and tourists coming to the city, Dubai is very accepting of the English language being spoken as well as a variety of other languages such as Tamil, Tagalog and many other languages are also freely spoken in the city.

Most countries affected by the civil wars have been cut off from any regional connections therefore they weren’t able to attract many of their regular customers. The UAE has taken that to their advantage by reeling in the customers who would normally shop in Egypt, Syria, Tunisia, Libya and Yemen and give them the opportunity to shop in places in the UAE instead of in a dangerous country. This has led to a 10% rise in spending by shoppers affected by the Arab Spring. The United Arab Emirates is known as a modern country with a stable government system that the public seems to respect. Governments from different countries such as Syria have shut down Internet and power connections to avoid the world to see the troublesome county. Because of these barricades, countries such as the United States and England have been keeping a close eye, especially since they cannot export and import products between countries. Perhaps the Middle East would’ve been better off without the Arab Spring.

The city of Dubai is known as one of the wealthiest cities among other Middle Eastern cities although it is the smallest in term of area; however, Dubai has several unique things that feature the city to be better than other cities. Dubai has a magnificent location, the ability to expand to twice its size, and the major port in the Middle East area.

Arab is not a race, but is a group of individuals that are united by their culture and history (ADC, 2014). There are many different variations commonly based on a particular individual’s country of origin such as Arab Americans. Other variations are based on their social class, the level of their education, if they live urbanely or rurally, or the time they have spent in the United States (Lipson & Dubble, 2007). Most Arabs also practice Islamic religion and are Muslim. When working with an Arab or Muslim client, nurses should ask what the client wishes to be referred to so as not to offend them in any way (Lipson & Dubble, 2007).

The United Arab Emirates is one of the most important tourist destinations in the region. The Arab spring had a very minor effect on the country’s tourism as it did not have a revolution but tourists in countries such as the Americas and Eastern Asia and some European countries were still slightly worried to visit any Arab country as it could be hit by the domino effect of the Arab Spring. UAE is not a neighboring country of any of the countries that had revolutions but it is in the same region.

Throughout the extent of time in which humans have inhabited the Earth, it has only been in the past couple hundred years that humanity has developed technology at an astonishing rate. From the early 1800s and onward, the human population has skyrocketed and advancements in technology have rapidly progressed through the course of a relatively short period of time. In that time, society has become a massive, interconnected network of people that are dependent on resources that originate from different parts of the world. With the technology of today, society has enabled resources that range from food to oil, to be transported to areas of the world in which those select resources are not available. An extreme example of this would be the city of Dubai, which is part of one of the seven emirates that constitute the United Arab Emirates. Dubai is one of the most impressive and wealthiest cities in the world and is well known for the luxurious lifestyle, extremely modernized architecture, and can be viewed as the epitome of a Westernized society. However, the land of the United Arab Emirates is sandy and barren, and not capable of being used for agricultural purposes, there is no major fresh water supply, and very few natural resources. With the absence of farmland and water, Dubai is a city that depends on the resources found worldwide that are purchased with the revenue from oil exports. Dubai has capitalized on its predominant resources and found

Qatar rapidly developed from a small traditional tribal society into a vibrant modern nation, becoming the world’s richest country per capita. The greatest changes in Qatar have occurred over the last decade. Despite the motivations and reasons for success, it is clear that Qatar focuses on the present and the future. Therefore, Qatar transformed the way Emir would develop in the future, how the military is constantly developing to protect against new threats, and the infrastructure to benefit the citizens of the state. Joseph E. Stiglitz once said, “Development is about transforming the lives of people, not just transforming economies.” (Quotes, n.d.)
