The nation of Oman has been an important trading location throughout history. Its location on the Arabian Peninsula and its rich oil reserves have played a part in the development of its healthy economy. These and other important facts about this small but fascinating Muslim nation are presented to readers through informative text and vibrant, full-color photographs. Common curriculum topics--from geography to government--are touched on, but readers also explore the many ways the people of Oman have fun, including the sports they play, the holidays the celebrate, and the foods they eat--complete with recipes!
