Recently Oman had a boundry disagreement with UAE If i were to visit oman I would like to see their oil from the oil fields that they have there, I would also like to see their coast line with the Arabian sea and I would also go and see the Sultan becuase he is rich. 1967- beginning of oil production in Oman. 1907 -The British forced the end of slavery on the new Sultan. 1986 -The Sultan Qaboos University opened in Oman. 2004- The Bush administration announced that it wanted to negotiate trade agreements with Oman and the UAR.

Qaboos ibn Said Al Bu Sa`idi is the current sultan. This is one way this country is different from the united states. We dont have a person will all the power in our country like the sultan does in theirs.
