1. Name:<\/strong>\u00a0Das Wort \"Kuwait\" bedeutet auf Arabisch \"Festung\". Die Stadt Kuwait wurde 1613 in der heutigen Hauptstadt Kuwait City gegr\u00fcndet.<\/p>\n

3. Inseln:<\/strong>\u00a0Im Persischen Golf gibt es 9 Inseln, die zu Kuwait geh\u00f6ren (Failaka, Bobiyan, Maskan, Warba, Ouha, Um AIMaradem, Um AI-Naml, Kubbar und Qarooh). Von allen 9 Inseln ist nur 1 bewohnt: Failaka<\/p>\n

4. Die Gastronomie:<\/strong>\u00a0Die kuwaitische K\u00fcche zeichnet sich vor allem durch Meeresfr\u00fcchte (aufgrund der K\u00fcstenlage von Kuwait-Stadt) in Kombination mit den vielen lokalen Gew\u00fcrzen aus<\/p>\n

Tatsache: Sandst\u00fcrme sind in Kuwait ein h\u00e4ufiges Ph\u00e4nomen - besonders in den Sommermonaten.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

6. Emirat:<\/strong>\u00a0Kuwait ist ein Emirat, in dem das Staatsoberhaupt ein Emir (Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah) ist, obwohl es auch einen Premierminister (Jaber Al-Mubarak Al-Hamad Al-Sabah) gibt. Die Macht des Emirs erlaubt es ihm, Verurteilte von Gef\u00e4ngnisstrafen und sogar von der Todesstrafe zu begnadigen. Der Emir ist auch der oberste milit\u00e4rische F\u00fchrer<\/p>\n

7. \u00d6l:<\/strong>\u00a0Sch\u00e4tzungen zufolge verf\u00fcgt Kuwait \u00fcber rund 10% der weltweiten \u00d6lreserven unter der Erde. 90% der kuwaitischen Exporte sind \u00d6l (und Derivate), und \u00d6l bringt rund 75% der Staatseinnahmen ein.<\/p>\n

8. Geschichte:<\/strong>\u00a0Kuwait war bis zum 1. Weltkrieg Teil des Osmanischen Reiches. Weltkrieg, als es Teil des Britischen Empire wurde. Erst 1961 wurde Kuwait f\u00fcr unabh\u00e4ngig von Gro\u00dfbritannien erkl\u00e4rt.<\/p>\n

9. Der Golfkrieg:<\/strong>\u00a0Kuwait wurde 1990 vom benachbarten Irak \u00fcberfallen und besetzt. Dies war Teil des Plans des irakischen Diktators Saddam Hussein, sich weitere \u00d6lquellen zu sichern. Die US-Streitkr\u00e4fte griffen am 17. Januar 1991 ein und der Krieg endete am 28. Februar 1991.<\/p>\n

10. \u00d6lbr\u00e4nde:<\/strong>\u00a0Als sich die irakischen Truppen Anfang 1991 zur\u00fcckzogen, setzten sie viele der \u00d6lquellen in Brand, so dass gro\u00dfe Teile des \u00f6stlichen und s\u00fcd\u00f6stlichen Kuwaits unbewohnbar wurden.<\/p>\n
