Brief introduction of Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi (Arabic:; English: Abu Dhabi is the capital of the United Arab Emirates and the capital of Abu Dhabi, the United Arab Emirates. Abu Dhabi is located on the mid-western coast of the United Arab Emirates, on a T-shaped island in the Persian Gulf. In 2006, about 6.5438+0.8 million people lived in Abu Dhabi, and 80% of the population immigrated from other countries. Oil changed the fate of Abu Dhabi. Abu Dhabi has the fifth largest oil reserves in the world. Oil wealth made the Al Nahyan family the president of the United Arab Emirates, while Sheikh Rashid bin Said Allermark Toum, the chief of Dubai, became the prime minister. Abu Dhabi means "a place with antelopes" in Arabic. It is said that the Arabian antelope used to haunt this area. Before the 1970s, Abu Dhabi was still a desert, with only a few adobe houses except for a few date palms and camel thorns everywhere. Most of the residents living in Abu Dhabi are Arabs (the current UAE President Zayed is the leader of the tribe). They live by fishing in the sea, catching pearls, raising cattle, sheep and camels. Camels are their traditional means of transportation, so they call themselves camel-riding people. Although Abu Dhabi is located on the south bank of the Gulf, its climate is a typical desert climate with little annual rainfall. The average temperature is above 25 degrees Celsius, and the temperature can be as high as 50 degrees in summer. In most areas, there is not enough grass and fresh water is scarce.
