Personal Reflection #1


Reflection #1


Emirates are unique 


 The United Arab Emirates is a small country located on the cost of the Arabian Gulf, and it was united in 1971.
With the aperies of oil in this period, people came from all over the Arabian Peninsula, searching for opportunities and new lives. 

However people lived here in peace with all the different backgrounds they had.
For sure it was a little hard in the beginning, but people adapted and lived to gether , until they became emirates as we know them.
..

Like any other nation emirates have their own culture, our religion is Islam, and we speak Arabic.
But what really defined's emirates and makes them unique?
Well take are accent for an example, it's quite unique ;
We have our own special words, Proverbs, poems and even we name some things 
 differently.

Also we have unique kind of music and dances, but the most famous is "yula". It’s a dance when men make some spectacular moves with their dancing Rifles using their hands.
Clothes are unique as well, in fact every county in the gulf clothes, and you can tell the difference by these have their little details on them, however emirates are known by   their
"Tarbush" and "hamdania"

Lets don’t forget food, we also have our own foods such as : harees,thered,mohala and much more delicious plats.   

Tell now I just mentioned they apparent things, but what really makes emirates so different, in fact its their very strong nationalism, it's hard to believe that on this small piece of land lives more than 108 different nationalities, with just 20% of the entire 
population are emirates, and still holding to their traditions, Constants, and identity.

Finally all thanks given to our father sheik zayed, which took the lead and crated this 
proud nation with all his wizens and love to his children as he said , and that’s a relationship between a leader and his people that the world will never understand.
