History of the Emirates: Temporada 1, Episódio 3

1 - 3: Rise of the Supercities

We look at the key events and forces that, in the last 500 years, have led to the glitz and glamour of the United Arab Emirates that we see today. From the rise of the tribes that battled for control of the different emirates, to the colonial meddling of the British, the discovery of oil and the struggle to form a new nation.
