The capital of the United Arab Emirates is ASbu Dhabi (Abu Zaby), the biggest city of the country is Dubai (Dubayy). Flights to the United Arab Emirates usually go to Dubai. The country is located on the Arabian Peninsula and has frontiers with Saudi Arabia and Oman. The frontier with Saudi Arabia is not definitely fixed.
The country is composed of seven emirates: Abu Dhabi (Abu Zaby), As-Sariqah, Al-Fujayrah, Ummu l-Qaywayn, Dubai (Dubayy) and Al-Ajman.
The official language of the United Arab Emirates is Arabic. In our map we have given the names of the localities in the Arabic script. Due to the lack of space we have not quoted the Latin transcription of the country's name Al-Imaratu al-Arabiyah al-Muttahidah.
Tourism is of increasing importance in the United Arab Emirates. We would appreciate more detailed information, also about tourism, flights, or individual tours to the United Arab Emirates.

This is our Map of the World with original scripts (original size 70 x 100 cm), from which the detailed map shown above has been cut out. The numbers of city inhabitants and vegetational zones were researched by hand for every country, by using the sources listed below. This procedure prevented the map from containing traditional errors provoked by simply copying such information from previous maps.

The map can be ordered for 11.50 Euros (+ postage and packing) at www.wissenladen.de.

 

Sources on which the information contained in this map is based:

 

The vegetational base map was aligned with satellite pictures from Google Earth.

The official names of the countries are quite well researched at www.geonames.de.

Also here you can find information on the geography of many countries: www.geographixx.de.

The numbers of inhabitants of the cities were taken from www.citypopulation.de.

And the mountain peak altitudes were largely derived form www.peakbagger.com.
