United Arab Emirates: Khalifa Industrial Zone Abu Dhabi (KIZAD) Free Zone
The formation of the Caliphate in the 7th century favored the spread of Islam among local population. Such cities as Dubai, Sharjah, El Fujairah were founded. The Eastern part of the Arabian Peninsula was part of the state of the Qarmatians and after its collapse it was under the governing of Oman. The English supremacy under the territory dates back to 1820. Oman was divided into three parts and later it was called Trucial Oman. Even under the protectorate of the British Empire the native people preserved their traditions and religion. At the beginning of the 20th century the richest oilfields were discovered. It favored the international capital flows and the improvement of living standards. In 1971 the federation of the United Arab Emirates was formed including six Emirates of the Trucial Oman. The seventh Emirate joined them next year.
