The United Arab Emirates (also the UAE or the Emirates) is a Middle Eastern federation situated in the southeast of the Arabian Peninsula in Southwest Asia on the Persian Gulf, comprising seven countries called emirates: Abu Dhabi, Ajmān, Dubai, Fujairah, Ras al-Khaimah, Sharjah, and Umm al-Quwain. Before 1971, they were known as the Trucial States or Trucial Oman, in reference to a nineteenth-century truce between Britain and several Arab Sheikhs.
