4. UAE history
The United Arab Emirates was formed from the group of tribally organized Arabian Peninsula sheikhdoms along the southern coast of the Persian Gulf and the northwestern coast of the Gulf of Oman.
Prior to independence, the UAE was Trucial Oman, also known as the Trucial States, and the component sheikhdoms of the territory were under British protection.
Although, from 1892, the United Kingdom assumed responsibility for the sheikhdoms´ defense and external relations, they were otherwise autonomous and followed the traditional form of Arab monarchy, with each ruler having virtually absolute power over his subjects.

5. Abu Dhabi's History
The history of Abu Dhabi dates back to the 3rd Millennium BC because some parts of this region were inhabited even at that period of time. Umm an-Nar, a culture named after the island where it was discovered, came up near the present Abu Dhabi.
Abu Dhabi is now the capital and the second largest city in the United Arab Emirates. Abu Dhabi lies on a T-shaped island jutting into the Persian Gulf from the central western coast.
