It comprises seven emirates: Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Dubai, Fujairah, Ras al-Khaimah, Sharjah, and Umm al-Qaywayn. It borders Oman to the southeast, the Persian Gulf to the north, and Saudi Arabia to the west and south.

The first important settlements in the region date back to the Bronze Age. The 7th century AD saw the arrival of Islam and during the 16th century the territory fell under the influence of European colonial powers, eventually establishing British rule. Following the end of the UK protectorate in December 1971, six sheikhs formed the union by signing the 1971 constitution, which Ras al-Khaimah joined a few months later. Each emirate retains considerable political, judicial, and economic autonomy.... THE ROUTES ARE STILL IN PREPARATION!!
