Known in ancient times as Dilmun, Bahrain was an important
center of trade by the 3rd millennium B.C. The islands were ruled
by the ersians in the !th century ".D., and then by "rabs until
#$!#, when the ortu%uese in&aded them. ersia a%ain claimed
Bahrain in #'(). In #*+3 "hmad ibn alKhalifah too- o&er, and the
alKhalifahs remain the rulin% family today. Bahrain became a
British protectorate in #+)(. It did not %ain full independence until
"u%. #!, #*#.
"lthou%h oil was disco&ered in Bahrain in the #3(s, it was
relati&ely little compared to other /ulf 0tates, and the wells are
e1pected to be the 2rst in the re%ion to dry up. 0hei- Isa ibn
0ulman alKhalifah, who became emir in #'#, was determined to
di&ersify his countrys economy, and he set about establishin%
Bahrain as a ma4or 2nancial center. The country pro&ides its
people with free medical care, education, and olda%e pensions.
Con5icts between the 0hiite and 0unni Muslims are a recurrin%
problem in Bahrain. The 0unni minority, to which the rulin% al
Khalifah family belon%s, controls nearly all the power and wealth in
the country. The 0hiites continue to a%itate for morerepresentation in %o&ernment, and minor &iolent clashes ha&e led
to about two do6en deaths since #!.
