[QUOTE="Justinian, post: 55834, member: 923"] No I don't know what you mean. Because you're either missing what I'm putting out, or I'm not putting it down right for you. Let me reiterate; The Mesopotamian civilizations were the seat of trading. Which in turn equalled them having what all the other nations of the world wanted. Which equalled all the gold from the new world ending up in Arabia. They were never and will never be powerful militarily. They don't do enough of their own research anymore. They contract out or buy tech from other nations and ride on the wings of someone else all the while hoarding their earnings. (Note: I'm not including the Ottomans here because from the locals here and the reading I've done, Turks are not considered Arab, they are their own racial denomination.) So The Arab nations have never been able to capitalize on their wealth. The British Empire took most of them as colonies on not much more than the threat of violence. Today's nations are all relying on oil too much. Luckily the UAE has gotten smart and is trying to expand their idealism and open up to tourism by allowing alcohol and hedonism(In case nobody knows.. Dubai is pretty much the prostitution capital of the world, maybe second only to Thailand. Although you'll find that about 75% of all prostitutes are Romanian or Roma). Anyways... There is a seperation for most of these nations during their British rule where I've not been able to find much yet on what happened to the wealth acquired before British rule. [/QUOTE]
