Saudi Arabia. That is the name of the largest country in the Peninsula / Peninsula of Arabia. The country has a hot climate due to its predominantly desert territory. Nevertheless, the population of Saudi Arabia actually live in prosperity & wealth because behind the expanse of deserts that envelop the country, stored petroleum reserves in a very large amount. If in the religious aspect, Saudi Arabia is famous for in this country there are the city of Mecca & Medina, 2 cities are sanctified deeply in Islam & become a dream destination of Muslims all over the world.
The country of Saudi Arabia as we know it today was only formed in the 20th century. But the embryo of the country can be traced back to the 18th century. In that period, a scholar named Muhammad bin Abdul Wahab established an alliance with Muhammad bin Saud, the ruler of a small emirate named Diriyah located in the middle of the Arabian Peninsula. Wahab made use of Saud's territory to teach his version of the Islamic understanding which today is known as the Wahabi school. Instead, Saud took advantage of Wahab's charisma to gain additional allies and followers.
Cooperation between the two then led to increased military strength Diriyah. Gradually, the area of Diriyah continues to grow until it covers almost the entire Arabian Peninsula, not least the city of Mecca & Medina is located in the west. It was reaping a sense of dislike of the Ottoman Empire as the early ruler of the 2 cities. If Mecca & Medina are allowed to change hands, then the world's Muslim community is feared will stop viewing the Ottoman as a legitimate Caliphate. The Ottomans are also worried that another region belonging to the Ottomans located in West Asia will also be annexed by Diriyah.
