Nine things you probably don't know about Qatar

How rich is Qatar? Why “bn shopping” in the world? Is it true that Sunday is working? And what is it all about with other Gulf countries?

Dimensions

It doesn't count. Qatar is slightly larger than Abruzzo (11437 ft. 10,795 km Quadrat). This makes 167th place in the world for the situation. But it's the rich man with the income to breathe: $1,800 per resident. He buys everything. Making a list of the latest purchases from investment funds to be repaid in Qatar is extremely difficult. In 2005, the Investment Authority was established in Qatar, not with the release of “to do shopping” all over the world and thus reduce the country's exposure to the oil price. Among the famous, Paris football team Saint- Germain, 10% of the Spanish Society El Corte Ingles (the largest chain of warehouses made of Europnex Perndimore) and the warehouses of the Great Lands, the Shard grataciel and many others in the city of London.

Before the discovery of the oil, it took place around the beginning of the years, BAR40s, it was a place, “developmental development of”, where many lived by winning moluski fish from the pearl. In the last nine years alone, his fish has grown to 12.4.

Honey Bear

New “Qatari for its inhabitants has another dye: it dyes honey, in the center of a prosperous industry and develops domestic food culture. There's a tradition in Qatar that you can eat a meal during the night and the morning.

Philanthropy

If you think about investing in the Sovereign Fund Qatar has just shut down in football, in luxury and in finance, you're wrong. Qatar's charity, formally nongovernmental organisations, but closely linked to real family officials, has merely philanthropic objectives. Aid and improvement of living conditions in municipalities in need of Qatar and other countries; promotion of Islamic culture

Top football charges

In 2002 Qatar hosted football and not without controversy. The money was made to pay off potential bribes to the Fifs for gaining office; then there were those relatives on the level line, in which football teams would play; in the end and in the end, the charges of many NONG, on conditions of half-slaves, which were imposed on workers, leaders coming from the Asian east, engaged in the establishment of stadiums; forced to live together in countries lined up with low wages and were unable to leave the country because their passports were confiscated from the workers. According to manyONG would have more than a hundred thousand employees dead to the World's Fifa 2022.

Luke Catario

It's a traditional men's costume in Qatar: a long white tonic that dresses like short hands and long, white cotton. The difference with other styles of sayings, different in other Arab countries, is in the hat, the shape of which reminds you of the head of a cobra. Women in Qatar wear a black and long cloak known as Abaya to uncover their hands, legs and grain often covered with Shayla, the Albanian newspaper broadcast.

Qatar is probably more tolerant of merit, while asking for look: in the sense that in 2012, a society has organized a field, holding a stand on <x0) public temperature because they thought that the government didn't control much of how the foreigners dressed that served the majority of the people of the country.

Work and Television

Work Week starts Sunday. The end of the week lasts until Friday (Day of Forgiveness for Muslims) and Saturday. Government offices start fast to open at 6 in the morning and commercial at 7.30. Al Yazeira, the main network of Arab bots, has a base in Qatar and is funded by the real catarist family.

New Democracy

Qatar, as we know today, is a little bit more than a major. By 1971, he was a British protectorate. Then with the takeover, power returns to the real Al Thani family. Middle Eastern experts have raised it despite advantages in 1999, when Qatar adopted municipal elections, which had enough voting and women.

Following constitutional referendum in 2003, the adoptions are formally a constitutional monarchy that envisions direct elections of 30 out of 45 officials The constitutional assembly under way that 15 were chosen by the wrongdoers. The first election many times was delayed. A fact of power based on the hands of the righteous. Not even political parties were allowed.
