center of trade by the 3rd millennium B.C. The islands were ruled

by the ersians in the !th century ".D., and then by "rabs until

Bahrain in #'(). In #*+3 "hmad ibn alKhalifah too- o&er, and the

alKhalifahs remain the rulin% family today. Bahrain became a

di&ersify his countrys economy, and he set about establishin%

Bahrain as a ma4or 2nancial center. The country pro&ides its

people with free medical care, education, and olda%e pensions.
