Qatar borders the Persian Gulf and Saudi Arabia, north of the United Arab Emirates.

Qatar, a small Gulf country on the Arabian Peninsula and member of OPEC, is bordered by Saudi Arabia to its north. The Qatari peninsula is connected to Bahrain in the north by what was once an underwater causeway but which now connects land through a bridge. Qatar has also been known historically as Catar or Katar and Al-Kata'ib. In 1914, following Sheikh Abdullah bin Jassim's death, his son Sheikh Ahmad bin Ali Al Thani became ruler of Qatar; he later led an invasion of Bahrain at the request of local inhabitants who were seeking support against their autocratic ruler. This was considered one of many attempts by Britain to limit Arab independence after World War I ended with Ottoman rule over much of Arabia collapsing into conflict between Turkish nationalists and British colonial forces (known locally as "Arabs")—a situation which continued until 1918 when Arab nationalists obtained nominal control over lands formerly ruled by Turks (including parts where today we refer to as Syria).

Qatari peninsula protrudes 160 kilometers into the Arabian Gulf from Saudi Arabia.

Qatar, a peninsula protruding 160 kilometers into the Arabian Gulf from Saudi Arabia, borders the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to the northwest. It is an island country of 2,240 square kilometers that can be divided into two geographical regions: mainland Qatar and offshore Qatari islands. One of these islands is Hawar Island in the north-central part of Qatar. The country has a small population of about 2 million people and features some of the world's most beautiful deserts such as Salwa Road, Al Khor Coastal Desert or Al Daayen Desert. Qatar has been inhabited since at least 6200 BCE when it was first settled by groups speaking Pre-Arabic Arabic dialects who migrated from Southern Mesopotamia via nearby Bahrain. In its early history as one of several Persian Gulf trading ports, Qatar became part of an economic triangle with Hajar Mountains ores being exchanged for dates grown locally on Ar Ruwah Island; camels were imported from Najd al Sham via Kuwait City during summertime. It later fell under Ottoman influence in 1769 when Muhammad ibn Saud took control over much of southern Arabia including Asir province which contained Doha (named after Doa). In 1878 it became independent from Ottomans but fell under British influence in 1916 after World War I broke out; Britain signed agreements with Sheikh Jassim bin Mohammed Al Thani giving Britain exclusive rights over defence and foreign affairs matters. Following independence from Britain in 1971, Doha formed close relationships with other oil rich countries like Saudi Arabia; however this caused resentment among its own people due to lackadaisical attitude towards development issues like infrastructure development which still remains poor even today despite vast oil wealth.
