Modern History
Qatar has been ruled by the House of Thani since the 18th century. In 1783, the Al-Khalifa tribe of Bahrain took power and ruled Qatar under a Turkish vassal state. It was not until a British force invaded and drove them out in 1811 that Qatar was finally liberated from Ottoman rule. The British then agreed to protect the House of Thani, in exchange for the latter having to cede dominion over their territory to them. As a result, Qatar became a British protectorate in 1913. Sultan bin Qassim Al-Thani was appointed the first Hereditary Emir of Qatar by the British on October 16, 1868. The position was passed from father to son until Hamad Bin Khalifa seized power in a coup on December 24, 1975. Qatar is a peninsula of Saudi Arabia and has always been well connected to Saudi Arabia through the causeway. Qatar shares its only land border with Saudi Arabia, which is also a causeway, along with Bahrain and Oman. Its maritime boundaries are oceans: the Persian Gulf to the northeast, the Arabian Sea to the east, and the Gulf of Oman to the west.

Politics
Qatar’s current status as a sovereign state is suddenly becoming a destabilizing foreign policy choice for its neighbors. This decision is partly due to Qatar’s differing understanding of Middle East politics and partly to how it weakens traditional understandings of what constitutes “statehood”. Qatar is an emirate under the umbrella of the United Arab Emirates. This defines Qatar’s sovereignty and gives it a stronger sense of self-determination than other countries in the Middle East. It also allows it to be part of an alliance like GCC without giving up its sovereignty, which a state like Jordan or Oman would cause.
Government
The Qatari leadership believes in their own claim and claims their version of the law. The leaders believe the country’s leadership may remain so for some time, with the country’s leaders believing in their own right and claiming their version of the law. and their country’s version of the law. The leaders believe that their country’s version of the law is accepted by the international community and by all states, and therefore they claimed that Qatar does not have to recognize another country’s version of the law, according to the National Charter of Qatar. It is actually said that this discussion was not necessary because what has been achieved in relation to Qatar’s legal system is sufficient.
Culture
Qatar’s culture is a fascinating cross-cultural heritage that blends Western, Arabic and Islamic traditions and experiences. The country has embraced this ethos through its modern architecture, socially and politically charged laws, and a strong emphasis on the ethnic diversity of its community, which showcases and celebrates the cultures of the Qatari people. Qatar’s “national culture” was officially launched in 2006 by the then Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani. The cultural framework attempts to portray the country as an Arab Emirate and to create a sense of national identity for Qatari society. The National Cultural Framework aims not only to provide an insight into Qatar’s heritage, but also to set out a vision for the future. Qatar is a modern cross-cultural heritage that combines Western, Arabic and Islamic traditions and experiences.
