The United Arab Emirates (UAE) was established in 1971, and we just celebrated the 50th anniversary of the UAE in 2021. The UAE has a population of about 10 million people, with about 10% locals and 90% expatriates from all over the world. The surface area of the United Arab Emirates is 83,000 square kilometers, which is slightly larger than Ireland and smaller than Portugal. The official languages in the United Arab Emirates are English and Arabic.
The UAE, as the name suggests, is made up of several emirates, more precisely, seven emirates. The first emirate is the most important, and it is the one of Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. This one represents 80% of the Emirates territory. The second Emirates we often hear about because it is rather the tourist capital is Dubai. The other five emirates are Ajman, Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah, Sharjah, and Umm Al Quwain.
