Creation of Modern Middle East UAE History

In history classes, students are sometimes quizzed about the

seven “Wonders of the Ancient World,” the term used to categorize

the Great Pyramids at Giza, the Colossus of Rhodes,

the Lighthouse of Alexandria, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon,

the Statue of Zeus at Olympia, the Temple of Artemis

at Ephesus, and the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus. There are

also other lists of Wonders, which include the Wonders of the

Middle Ages: this list includes the Great Wall of China, the

Taj Mahal, and other amazing and awe-inspiring man-made

structures.

In the future, however, there may be another item to add to

that list: The Palm Islands of Dubai, one of the seven members

of the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

It is truly startling to comprehend the scope of this project:

the emirate of Dubai has plans underway to build the three

largest man-made islands in the world off the coast of the UAE.

The three islands, Palm Jumeirah, Palm Diera, and Palm Jebel

Ali, will—when seen from the air—each be shaped like a date

palm tree. Its land masses will be formed into a tree trunk that

extends out from the Dubai coast, topped with palm fronds,

and several islands in a semi-circle around it as a breakwater to

protect it from the tides.

Three islands, each like a giant palm tree—together, they will

extend the coast line of Dubai by seventy-two miles and, according

to the emirates plans, make the UAE the undisputed leader

in international tourism.For downloading please click the below Download two button. If one link do not work properly when you download the book. Another link please clicks and downloads. For User easiness we upload the book on two links name is Download Book and Read Book Online.
