Why don't Arabs unite?

The reasons for Arabs' disunity are: the interruption of civilization, the weak sense of national identity, the influence of clans and tribes, the intervention of external forces and the backwardness of civilization.

1, the process of civilization was interrupted: the process of civilization development in Arab countries was interrupted many times, resulting in its immature civilization development and lack of attraction. No one wants to go through fire and water for this civilization, and no one wants to die for reunification.

2. Weak sense of national identity: Arabs are not a nation linked by blood and genes, but by language, culture and religion. This special connection makes Arabs in different regions have great differences in appearance and appearance, which also leads to their lack of sufficient national identity.

3. The influence of clans and tribes: Arabs mainly live in the form of clans and tribes, which have a strong influence and people often obey the orders of tribal leaders and elders.

4. Intervention by external forces: After the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, the British did not want the Arab countries to be unified, because they were worried that it would form a new Ottoman Empire and affect their interests.

5. Backward civilization: Muhammad, the founder of Islam, was born in a poor family in the Arabian Peninsula and had no higher education. This makes the civilization development of Arab countries relatively backward, especially in the relations with Israel and other countries.
