History is silent, and there are traces of time!
The devil is in the details! The truth is often hidden in the details. First, the political systems of the countries of the Middle East are either theocratic monarchs or strongman politics. 1. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the leader of the Sunni sect of Islam, is a monarchy that prohibits all political party activities, has no constitution, and uses the Quran and Hadith (a collection of texts that record the speeches of the Islamic prophet Muhammad) as the basis for national legislation and law enforcement. The king was also known as the "servant of the two holy places (Mecca and Medina)".
On March 1, 1992, King Fahd promulgated the Basic Law of Governance, stipulating that the king of Saudi Arabia should be the best of the descendants of the founding monarch Abdulaziz.

Since the Islamic Revolution in 1979 and Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini came to power, Iran has followed this system. The current supreme leader of Iran is Ayatollah Ali Ali Khamenei, who is in charge of the army, courts, ** and mosques, and is the supreme leader in religious and secular politics, elected by a committee of experts and serving for life.

3. Turkey and Egypt implement a republican system, but at the moment Erdogan and Morsi are both political and military strongmen, and what is really practiced is strongman politics.
4. Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Yemen and other countries are neither **, nor **, let alone centralized, not even a country, but only a collection of tribal chiefs. The most typical is the UAE.
The UAE implements an aristocratic republic, the royal power is scattered in the hands of various tribal clans, there is no national civil official**, a large number of ** promotions and appointments are based on blood, lack of the most basic modern civil service quality, coupled with the strong influence of Islam, religious personnel despise royal power.
The state rules the state more by tribal customs and sharia than by individual will.

5. Alien Israel is an outlier in the Middle East, and it is not something that can grow naturally on the soil of the Middle East.
Israel has a parliamentary form of government. The Parliament is the highest authority of the State and is made up of a majority of seats in the Parliament or a coalition of political parties.
It is no accident that Israel became the only developed country in the Middle East. At present, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is an iron-fisted strongman with three ups and downs, and he is facing the dilemma of being bogged down in the Israeli-Kazakhstan conflict. Because of the political system, he doesn't have ** now because Israel is at war. Regardless of how the conflict in Gaza ends in the future, Netanyahu's political life is likely to be over. Second, the Egyptians are good at cultural construction.
Egyptian civilization, one of the world's native civilizations, an ancient country among the world's ancient countries. The ancient Egyptians created a complete system of writing, politics and institutions, as well as a religious system of polytheism. It occupies an important position in the world cultural system, and also has its own characteristics in terms of geographical location, humanities and economy. The ancient Egyptian civilization had a great influence on later civilizations such as ancient Greece, ancient Rome, and Judea.
Third, the Levantine and the Two Rivers are good at procreation. The ancients of the Crescent were known for their agriculture and irrigation techniques, inventing irrigation systems, hydraulic engineering, and agricultural tools that supported local agricultural production and made the region the breadbasket of the ancient world.
The abundance of food and resources allows them to sustain a large population.
Fourth, the Maghrebs – the Arabs who colonized Europe. The Maghreb, which means "land of the sunset" in Arabic, is the northwestern region of Africa. The Maghreb was located further west in Egypt, and the mainstream inhabitants were another branch of the Levantine peasantry, which in the broad sense belonged to the people of the Burbers. Traditionally influenced by Mediterranean and Arab civilizations, the region also has close contacts with the sub-Saharan region of Black Africa, resulting in a unique culture.
Tariq ibn Ziyad, the general of the Arab Empire who crossed the Strait of Gibraltar to conquer Iberia in 711 AD, was a Berber. The Arabs ruled the land for nearly 800 years until 1492, when the Spaniards drove the Arabs out of the peninsula and Islam said goodbye to Spain.
Fifth, the Gulf people - the money bag of the Islamic world.
There are eight countries in the Persian Gulf region: Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, Iran, Iraq.
Because of its rich oil, the region has made extraordinary achievements in energy, finance, ** and the export of Islam compared to other Islamic regions. Dubai and Abu Dhabi in the UAE are the financial centers of the Islamic world.
The Persian Gulf region is the center of energy and **.
Iran has created an arc of resistance with oil money.
Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and other countries have used petrodollars to build countless mosques and madrassas in Europe, Afghanistan, Pakistan and other places.
