Historical Facts about Qatar

Before Qatar was an Oil-trading empire, it was known for its expansive trade in Oysters and pearls, creating a market based on Pearl-diving.

Oil was first discovered on Qatari soil in the 1940s, which marked the beginning of a new era and made Qatar one of the largest oil conglomerates in the world.

Qatar was under British rule for most of its history, but finally gained independence in 1971. It also remained independent from the UAE, establishing itself as a Sovereign nation.

The ruins of Al Zubarah, a UNESCO World Heritage site, were once a popular port for the 18th century, for Pearl trading.
