Kuwait is located in the northwest of the Arabian Gulf, which is bordered to the east, bordered to the north and west by the Republic of Iraq, and bordered by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to the south, with a total area of \u200b\u200b17,818 square kilometers. The constitution is governed by the Al-Sabah family, according to a democratic constitutional monarchy, and it is a member of the Gulf Cooperation Council.<\/p>\n

Kuwait has been known since the beginning of the seventeenth century as the \u201cQurain.\u201d Then the use of the name \u201cKuwait\u201d became widespread on the tongues. It is called Kuwait by this name as a diminutive of the word \u201cKut\u201d which means fortress or fort, or the house built in the form of a fort next to the water and surrounded by small houses in relation to its large size, and this house is a destination for ships. And the ships that dock with him to supply fuel, food, drink and other travel necessities.<\/p>\n

The Emirate of Kuwait remained independent of the Ottoman rule, and this situation continued until 1870, when the governor of Baghdad, Midhat Pasha, the ruler of Kuwait, granted the title of Qaim Maqam. As a result, Al-Ahsa, Qatar and Najd were also merged with the Wilayat of Basra, which was deducted from the Wilayat of Baghdad.<\/p>\n

Despite these organizational decisions, the Kuwaiti-Ottoman relations remained as they were, as there was no change on the ground between them, and the title of Qaim Maqam that the rulers of Kuwait held was considered as an appreciation of his position and an honorary position only, and the Ottoman Empire pledged to continue the autonomous Kuwait, which explains the absence of any An Ottoman military garrison, or any Ottoman civil administration inside Kuwait, and the Kuwaitis were not conscripted into the service of the Ottoman army and did not pay any financial penalty to the Turks.<\/p>\n

This situation continued until the reign of Sheikh Mubarak Al-Sabah 1896-1915, when during his reign Kuwait became under British protection and signed a protection agreement with the British Empire on January 23, 1899. The Kuwaitis took advantage of this treaty to build and strengthen the capabilities of the state, and to establish strong bases for a modern state.<\/p>\n

That treaty also provided the external political stability of the Kuwaiti state to a large extent, and on June 19, 1961, the British protection treaty was abolished as a result of the spread of the Arab liberation movement from the yoke of colonialism, and the independence of the State of Kuwait was declared, and the country\u2019s constitution was promulgated on November 11, 1961.<\/p>\n
