Current History, Vol. 68, No. 402, The Middle East, 1975 (February, 1975), pp. 74-79, 82-83, 88 Modern Saudi Arabia—officially founded in 1932—emerged from centuries of climatic shifts, tribal migrations, Islamic revolutions, colonial intrigue, and an oil boom that reshaped global energy markets. 1. Pre-Islamic Foundations & Early Trade The Arabian Peninsula, once alternating between lush savannas and harsh desert during repeated African Humid Periods, became a crossroads linking Africa, Asia, and Europe. Early Homo sapiens, elephants, lions, and other species migrated through this land bridge, laying the groundwork for ancient caravan routes. When surrounding empires such as Babylon, Egypt, and the Indus Valley flourished, Arabian oasis towns and Red Sea ports thrived as vital nodes on the spice and incense trails. 2. Islamic Unification & Mecca’s Centrality In 610 CE Prophet Muhammad founded Islam in Mecca, transforming the city into Islam’s holiest destination. Rapid Arab-Muslim conquests spread Arabic language, Quranic law, and pilgrimage commerce from Spain to Central Asia. After the Caliphates fragmented, regional powers—most notably the Ottoman Empire and, later, the British Empire—vied for strategic influence across the Peninsula. 3. Wahhabism & the Three Saudi States First Saudi State (1745-1818): Shaikh Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab’s reformist “Wahhabism” allied with Emir Muhammad bin Saud in Diriyah, launching a jihad that seized Mecca and Medina before Ottoman-backed Egypt crushed the movement. Second Saudi State (1824-1891): Turki bin Abdullah recaptured Riyadh, creating the Emirate of Nejd, but dynastic feuds let Ottoman proxies regain control. Third Saudi State (1902-present): Ibn Saud’s daring 1902 raid on Riyadh sparked a decades-long campaign uniting Nejd, Al-Hasa, and eventually the Hashemite-ruled Hejaz. Victories over the Ikhwan revolt (1930) and recognition at the 1926 International Sanitary Conference paved the way for proclamation of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on 22 September 1932. 4. Colonial Politics & World Wars During World War I the British armed Saudis against the Ottomans but later shifted support to Hashemite monarchs in Iraq, Trans-Jordan, and the short-lived Kingdom of Hejaz. Ibn Saud’s forces nonetheless prevailed, exploiting Ottoman collapse and British reluctance to occupy the desert interior. 5. Oil Discovery, ARAMCO & Petro-Power Cash-poor in the Great Depression, Riyadh granted U.S. geologists exploration rights; in 1938 the colossal Dammam No. 7 strike unlocked the world’s largest proven oil reserves. World War II delays ended with the 1950 “50/50 profit-sharing” deal that turned Saudi Aramco into an energy juggernaut. Petro-dollars funded highways, airports, universities, and welfare programs while the kingdom co-founded OPEC in 1960 to stabilize crude prices and amplify geopolitical leverage. 6. Religious Legitimacy & Domestic Consolidation The government embedded Wahhabi doctrine into schools, courts, tribal arbitration, and Hajj administration, positioning the House of Saud as Guardians of the Two Holy Mosques. Strict enforcement by the mutawa religious police and control of pilgrimage visas bolstered internal unity and deterred foreign criticism. 7. Modern Challenges & Strategic Influence By the 21st century oil still contributed nearly half of GDP, compelling Vision 2030 diversification drives toward renewable energy, technology, and tourism. Regionally, Riyadh wields soft power through petro-aid, media networks, and proxy alliances from Yemen to Sudan, balancing U.S. defense ties with shifting OPEC+ dynamics and great-power competition.
