The #UAE craves #power disproportionate to its size. The state has steadily transformed from the Manhattan of the Middle East to the region’s 'Little Sparta’.

Emirates Airlines 1st Class is unrivaled on planet Earth, you would have to buy your own medium jet and crew to even come close.
Dubai is a beautiful city, and if you are a fan of modern construction, the city is full of gems, great food, and beautiful sights...
Good video, but aren't you heavily biased towards the UAE?
It's hardly subjective and it shows
please do a documentary on Myanmar
Happy Ramadan!
@@desertblade1874there's certainly a lot of praise towards its government. but if "Emirati citizens account for only a fraction of the population," there is certainly a lot that was unsaid.....
"Going Commando" means something very different in western vernacular.
I wonder if the other meaning of that phrase is very well known outside of the US/UK/Canada/Australia? I think the narrator of this channel is from Azerbaijan.
Please enlighten us.
@@midei "without undergarments" usually in reference to a lady in a dress or skirt

Not sure I would compare the UAE to Sparta. They come off more as Venetian. Just with less boats and more buildings.
Like Sparta, they have a massive slave population.
The UAE is sparta of today’s world in fact all of their male citizens are enrolled into military service after high school and are trained and ready in case any conflict erupts.
@@rar9119Er so are all males in Greece, so point ain't valid.By your analogy Greece would be Sparta of today's world ;p Its probably Israel that is perfect for this analogy.
General James Mattis of the US called them that.
Sparta was a pretty crappy city state whose constitution ensured it would decline into irrelevance. It's militia of citizen-soldiers wasn't even that great compared to its contemporary rivals, and in any case, it couldn't even bring the full force of its army to bear in any conflict because then their slaves would revolt. What country would want to be compared to Sparta?
Before this video even starts, I say this everytime. If you remove that dreadful music in the videos, the world won't sound like it is on the brink of collapse every 5 seconds
It’s suspenseful
That is the sound of History being made at every slide transition
Well, this music is not so dramatic
I like the music

Great video! But you should've also talked about the Sudan civil war and how the Emirates and Saudis support opposite sides in the war which has led to problems (UAE supporting the RSF while Saudi and USA supporting the Army)
I though Saudi, UAE supported rsf and the US does want ever uae wants because the UAE serves US interests. But sauid isn’t as involved anymore
Ethiopia too! they were involved directly by supplying weapons to the government
@@Bell_plejdo568pRealLifeLore has already covered that

Politics has no relation to morals.....
So true, and so tragic.
Countries dont have friends, only interests. -some guy in a shed
but the twist is, it doesn't have to necessary have any relations to morals for it to be utilitarian enough to benefit the most amount of people, just because it has no relation to morals doesn't mean mass suffering is just something that will naturally happen either way and there's nothing to do about it
good politics/policy is when you keep the most amount of people as functional as possible, with European countries with some of the highest quality of life for the average person
@@hang_kentang6709 really big boobs are overrated -a modern day philosopher
@@Ar1AnX1x That's not a twist, most morally sound judgment was made because it has some benefit in the long run. Problem is, morality is a social construct and that tends to change.
Politics has relations to ethics.
For instance, if you declare a war, you have to take responsibility for it.

The UAE is like Singapore, it's too peaceful and economically vital for anyone to F with. The Swiss may also be a good analogy.
Different to other of your videos, this one seems to have been quite sanitized. It seems more like an eulogy (UAE can't do any wrong, every action is justified and rational). It doesn't provide the critical view of issues as in other Caspian Report videos. Like the involvement in the Sudan crisis. Or the role in the Yemeni war. Always in sides that oppose KSA interests. I'm puzzled.

The quality of his videos seem to be deteriorating for whatever reason. I think partially it's just that his style has gotten boring and overly inefficient with a lack of soul, furthermore obviously every other video a channel or media created will be less valued than the last so the longer you watch a specific channel the more diminished returns you are entailing.
He’s getting that oil money 💰
He did mention that, didn't you watch the whole video?
Hmmm… whats the going rate for a RUclipsr’s soul?
It's one of the reasons why Saudi Arabia has their Vision 2030. Mohammed bin Salman understood very quickly they can no longer rely on fossil fuels, they saw how UAE is now less reliant on fossil fuels. At one point fossil fuels were pretty much 100% of the UAE's economy, now it's 30% that is massive diversification of the economy. And MBS can see they need to diversify the economy as soon as possible otherwise they will get left behind.
I hear the temperatures in summer are mercutian?
Its down to 17% reliance, I don't know why this video quotes figures nearly a decade old
24% now in hydrocarbons
They depend on oil reserves to generate power and water for the country
They have to import manpower , food and even raw materials for the "industries" they have .
It's not the strongest country , but functions well as an international intermediary and financial centre ,thanks solely to their unique political culture
No kidding!!! 😑 🙄
Lol.... 🤦🏼♀️
Maybe having many wealthy people living in or having property in Dubai gives it some political leverage worldwide
On spot👍🏻Also, just walk into ANY small or big Mall and you'll see no empty outlet. Tens of thousands of small kiosks/shops with 1-3 employees and (sometimes) hardly any customers makes you wonder who owns these businesses. ANSWER: Black Money parking and laundering by ultra-rich from many a nations--Russian billionaires to many a shady millionaires from all over the third world.
@@achaljoshi402 I wouldn't rush to judgement as it could also be that those outlets and kiosks make up for their limited buyers by selling high-priced items.
HARDLY any customers? Do you even go there during the Weekends? 😂@@achaljoshi402
Of course it helped that for over 100 years before the discovery of oil in the region, Dubai was a trade hub with a well established free market economy.
was and its still
A very small trade hub, to be entirely fair. Dealing in pearls (aside from local consumption goods), mostly, until Japanese competition crushed the local pearl industry.
Dubai in the 1820 wasn't even the largest settlement in the coast. Ras al-Khaima was the center of power at the time.
The trade hub of the Indian Ocean in the 1800s were Aden and Bombay. Bassora as well, to some extent. Dubaï was just a halt on the way.

Lived in the UAE for almost 8 years, this is the most comprehensive content I watched about this incredible country

stay blessed.
I still do. A lot of people misunderstand and don't understand the whole history. It may not be perfect but they have worked for their selves and GIVEN HOW YOUNG this country is it's just so awesome they can get all that development within such a small time.
As a Canadian, who lived in our capitol, Ottawa, I can report that the most extravagant embassy in Ottawa is not the US, not the UK, not Chinese, French, Japanese, Saudi or any other large countries. It is the UAE embassy. I had to go and look up where the UAE is because I had never heard of it I was just shocked to see how ornate and beautiful this embassy was even though it was not from any of our major allies or trading partners. For such a small country, their prosperity is impressive. Well done UAE!

Really what about the rape incident that happened?
We should not ignore the misstreatment of migrant workers in the country and down right human trafficking considering the many cases in which passports were confiscated upon arrival. They make empty promises of good salary to later relocate then to guettos.
Your source being? I have tons of family living there and that is not an issue. If they were actually doing that then the governments of Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, etc. would all stop their citizens from going there like how the Indonesian government did so when Indonesians were going missing in Saudi
This does unfortunately happen with some foreign companies that post shop here, but the instances decreased alot. Still, it should be a good priority to eliminate these companies from the UAE real estate market.
@@crimsonfox8496 he’s using old info - that used to be widespread - 15 yrs ago. He also forgets to mention there’s NO WORK back home - while tough work and low pay the construction work gives them some opportunity to make money (foreign remittances is a huge industry in DXB) and learn skills.
@@WestCoastAce27Exactky and if you still think UAE and India is shit as an Indian you can take the experience in UAE and catapult yourself to Europe.
Can't do that sitting in India.
Modern slavery
Great analysis, one thing to add would be the aspects of the UAE/Turkey rivalry. The UAE leadership got spooked by Turkey years ago, which gives impetus when UAE invests in Somaliland for Ethiopian recognition and the Turks making a deal with the Somali state in Mogadishu. Egypt and Sudan will be key there, especially how Sudan is in Flux as is most of the Red Sea.
More like qatar/uae rivalry
With this recent US apparent pivot to Turkey in lieu of middle east, I believe this point needs some Caspian Report focus.
@@Critt_Ari Qatar, Turkey, Iran, Muslim Brotherhood, US Democrats VS UAE, Saudi, Egypt, Israel, US Republicans
@@KGF-zf2qj no fucking way Iran would be supported by any american politician
@@Critt_Ari You have to think twice about that! Obama paved the way for Iranian militias to seize control of four Arab capitals after the US supported the disastrous Arab Spring. Then, he withdrew sanctions imposed on Iran, enabling them to sponsor their militias. Trump pursued the opposite approach, but now Biden is continuing the Democrats' policy by unfreezing billions of Iran's foreign assets. This represents the unholy alliance between Democrats and radical political Islam, to destabilize the Middle East. It Goes back to Carter and the CIA enabling the Islamic revolution in Iran!

Comparing UAE to Sparta to probably the worst comparison I could have imagined? How did you come up with that? Sparta was a minor power that became a regional military power house. UAE is no such thing. Closer to Athens or Corinth if anything.

Anyway heres a brownies recipe
Ingredients:
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup chocolate chips (optional, but highly recommended)
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Melt the butter: In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter.
Add sugar: Stir in the granulated sugar until just combined.
Transfer to a mixing bowl: Remove from heat and pour the mixture into a heat-proof mixing bowl.
Add eggs: Stir in the eggs, one at a time.
Incorporate dry ingredients: Stir in the cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Fold in flour: Gradually fold in the all-purpose flour until no streaks remain.
Add chocolate chips: If using, fold in the chocolate chips.
Spread the batter: Spread the brownie batter into a parchment-lined 9x13-inch baking pan.
Bake: Bake for approximately 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Cool and cut: Let the brownies cool completely in the pan, then cut into squares.
Tips:
For extra fudginess, slightly underbake the brownies.
You can add nuts (such as walnuts or pecans) if you like.
Serve with a dusting of powdered sugar or a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
Wow how useful!

The UAE involvement in Yemen was part of a wider strategy for them to gain a foothold on the island of Socotra (think it's spelt right), they seem to have a wider plan to make it a regional hub I think as a resort.
Socotra has unique ecosystem and vegetation only native to this island. UAE as it does plans to turn the whole thing into a resort. Plus its position makes it a good strategic naval base. For now they already have a base there and de-facto owns the state. They even bought the people's loyalty by throwing cash. After that they pulled out of Yemen mainland. Truly the end justify the means for the Emiratis.

I don't think I fully agree with the statement "Politics, after all, has no relation to morals." Yes, there are mechanisms that help to approach a situation rationally, but there is a contradiction to be found in Shirvan's narrative. For example, one could argue that Arab solidarity with Palestine is not in the interest of Saudi Arabia. And if politics were amoral, why would there be Millennium Development Goals in the UN, like eradication of extreme poverty.

"Going commando" is not a military term but an expression describing wearing a skirt without pants by a woman, usually when riding a horse.
that's the joke.
“Going commando” is a way of saying that you're not wearing any underwear. The term refers to elite soldiers trained to be ready to fight at a moment's notice. So when you're not wearing any underwear, you're, well, ready to go at any moment - without pesky undies in the way.

Truly, the UAE is Utopian...or at least that's what the video wants us to think.
I know right especially a lot of RUclipsrs have been critical of the UAE. To be honest I went to Dubai last summer and I wish I didn’t. It was so Soulless and the buildings were closing in on me from every direction
@@Ten.ofcupsI think I love the buildings but hey I have taste in architecture 😂
As a Canadian living and working in Abu Dhabi in the Medical field , I can tell u that Abu Dhabi will be the leader in medical science in the world very soon especaily now with AI technology
Fine diners still put salt and pepper on their customer's table. A reason for customer's preference in taste.

You are one of the best documentaries together with RealLifeLore on RUclips. Keep working, hope to make one about Transnistria conflict. My be can make also a series on Nebula.
RealLifeLore...
Sounds a bit like UAE propaganda video at times, tbh. Not enough devoted to critics.
