The State of Kuwait is a monarchy located on the Persian Gulf, between Saudi Arabia and Iraq. The current rulers are descendents of the tribe that established Kuwait in the 16th Century by building a fort (kut). The word kuwait is Arabic meaning "fortress built near water". Only adult males (21) can vote.
Kuwait's terrain is flat to slightly undulating desert, with severe dust storms. Sudden cloudbursts are common between October and April. The Kuwaiti summers are very hot. Kuwait must desalinate seawater to supply its population with potable water.
Kuwait, slightly smaller than New Jersey, has about 10% of the world's oil reserves. The historic economy of Kuwait was pearling and spice trade center, today Kuwaiti economy is dominated by oil. Kuwait was invaded by Iraq in late 1990, which precipitated the the Persian Gulf War Desert Storm.
