| There are many Tuareg subgroups, including the Air Tuareg, named after their homeland in the Air Mountains. This area is part of the Sahel Desert, but the location is relatively wet, with enough water to sustain small herds. Though the Tuareg are known for being fierce desert warriors, the Air Tuareg hold a public festival which they open to outsiders. The festival features cultural events, camel rides and a market for locally made goods. | 1 | 2.0% |
| The Amri are one of the “Arabized” tribes in Sudan that have adopted Arab culture and the Islamic religion. Agriculture is the basis of the economy in most Arabized tribes.

| The (Coastal) Arabs live along the coasts of Tanzania and Kenya, in an area commonly known as the Coastal Belt. They are concentrated in some of the ancient settlements along the coast and in cities such as Dar es Salaam. These Arabs speak Arabiya, or Coast Arabic, which is an Arabic dialect. They also speak the regional language, Swahili. They interact with other Muslim communities but have their own culture and even their own cuisine. | 1 | 2.0% |
| U.A.E. society is one of the most diverse in the world, with workers from over 200 countries, including Oman. Omani Arabs go to the relatively prosperous UAE for jobs in the oil and service industries. They usually stay temporarily, though some are permanent. | 1 | 2.0% |
| Most of the Arabs in Canada are college students. They come to Canada to receive a good education in medicine and other high level studies. Their numbers are increasing, and Canadians are also beginning to attend universities in Arab countries. In addition to studying, they like to celebrate their own holidays. For example, Kuwaiti Arabs celebrate National Day, held on February 25-26. This is Kuwait's independence day, and some of them celebrate by building snowmen, something which they cannot do in hot, dry Kuwait. | 1 | 2.0% |
| There are two kinds of Arabs either passing through or living in Hungary. The poorer ones are trying to escape Iraq or Syria. Hungary is not their final destination; they are passing through in hopes of finding jobs in Germany or one of the Scandinavian countries. The other kind of Arab is much wealthier. There are Kuwaitis, Egyptian, and others purchasing land in places like Komlo and Pecs, Hungary. | 1 | 2.0% |
| The Kenyan Arabs live in fishing villages along the coasts of Tanzania and Kenya in an area known as the Coastal Belt. They are concentrated in some of the ancient settlements along the coast and in cities such as Mombasa and on Kenya's Lamu Islands. Their culture is still very similar to that of the first Arabs (desert nomads or Bedouins) and refer to their ancestors as the "true" Arabs. Virtually all Muslim, many believe that the Koran provides hope for a better life for now and for eternity. | 1 | 2.0% |
| Arab traders have been visiting the Philippines for about 2,000 years. Until around 1380 Syrian Arabs brought Christianity to the region along with pre-Islamic belief systems. Following 1380, Islam was the religion that most Arabs brought with them. Generally moving from the southern islands like Mindanao towards the northern ones, they converted the Filipinos to the Islamic religion. Many of these early Arabs married Filipina women. Those Filipinos with Arab parentage live primarily in Mindanao, while the more recent immigrants are living in Manila. | 1 | 2.0% |
| The Arab culture was developed by tribes of nomads and villagers who lived in the Arabian Desert. It was from there that Arab migrations throughout the Middle East and northern Africa began, leading to the expansion of the Arab world. Today, the region is home to a number of different types of Arabs. The Gulf Arabs (also known as the Saudi Arabs) live primarily along the southern edges of the Arabian Desert, though some have migrated to other Arabic-speaking countries like Egypt. They speak Arabiya or, as it is more commonly known, Gulf Arabic.
Gulf Arabs in Egypt are usually from Saudi Arabia, a strict Islamic state. Alcohol and loose sexual behavior are strictly forbidden in Saudi Arabia, so they go to places like Egypt to indulge in these self-destructive activities. | 1 | 2.0% |
| Through the centuries, life has changed little for Gulf Arabs, who live in long tents made from woven goat or animal hair. Gulf Arabs live in the desert regions of Iran, herding their goats and sheep, traveling by camel from one oasis area to another. These nomadic people are very proud of their lifestyle and feel like it is a step down to farm or have any other job. Some of them have had to settle in Tehran. | 1 | 2.0% |
| Gulf Arabs are those from the countries bordering the Persian Gulf: Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. The Arab states of the Persian Gulf share a regional culture that is sometimes referred to as "khaleeji (gulf) culture". They all speak Gulf Arabic and share similar music styles, cuisine, and dress. Most Arabs living near the Persian Gulf also trace their ancestry back to Arab tribes of either Najd (in what is now central Saudi Arabia) or Yemen. All the Arab States of the Persian Gulf have significant revenues from oil and gas and, with the exception of Saudi Arabia, have small local populations. Gulf Arabs today control much wealth. | 1 | 2.0% |
| The 19th century brought about a thriving trading community dominated by a couple of prominent merchant families that still hold much power in Kuwait today. Though there are many other Arabic speaking peoples in Kuwait, the native Kuwaitis are those who speak a Gulf language, of which Kuwaiti Arabic is a dialect. Since the development of the oil industry, many Kuwaiti Arab men are now bureaucrats, clerical technicians, industrialists, and other professionals. The oil economy has brought new communication systems, water systems and roads. The reformed educational system has led to one of the highest literacy rates in the region. Health care, affordable housing, and other social services have given Kuwaitis comfortable lives. | 1 | 2.0% |
| Gulf Arabic is the dialect of Arabic spoken mainly in the eastern half of Saudi Arabia and the nearby smaller countries such as Bahrain, Qatar and the UAE. It is also spoken by some in Yemen and Oman, two countries that border Saudi Arabia. Most Omanis speak the Omani dialect of Arabic, though some speak Gulf Arabic. Oman is a rural and under-populated nation on the Arabian Peninsula. Their economy has grown considerably, partly because of the discovery of oil deposits. | 1 | 2.0% |
| Qatar has been ruled as an absolute and hereditary emirate by the Al Thani family since the mid-19th century. Formerly one of the poorest Gulf states, it has become one of the region's wealthiest states due to its enormous oil and natural gas revenues. In 2010, Qatar had the world's highest GDP per capita, while the economy grew by 19%, the fastest in the world. With a small citizen population of fewer than 350,000 people, foreign workers outnumber native Qataris. Foreign expatriates come mainly from other Arab nations and the Indian subcontinent. Shari 'a (Islamic law) is the main source of Qatari legislation, and is applied to aspects of family law, inheritance, and certain criminal acts. | 1 | 2.0% |
| What is now Saudi Arabia is the birthplace of Islam and the Islamic prophet, Mohammed, who united Arabia under the banner of Islam and began to conquer lands as far west as Morocco and Spain and as far east as India. For hundreds of years, Arabia was inhabited by Bedouins. Little changed until 1902, when King Abdulaziz (aka, Ibn Saud) began to conquer the four regions of what is now Saudi Arabia. By 1932 the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was founded by that same king. Saudi Arabia is also known as the "House of Saud" since it is ruled by one family. | 1 | 2.0% |
| In most cases Gulf Arabs have no need to leave their countries to live somewhere else as they are well provided for and so there are not many of them living in America. After World War II, many of the students from Gulf Arab countries came to America for higher education. The Gulf Arabs in America speak Arabic and English. Many live in California. Omanis are a small part of the overall population that speaks Gulf Arabic. | 1 | 2.0% |
| Gulf Arabic, also known as Arabiya, is the dialect of Arabic spoken mainly in the eastern half of Saudi Arabia and the nearby smaller countries such as Bahrain, Qatar and the UAE.

| Omani Arabs are one of the world's least-reached people groups. Most live in Oman in the Arabian Peninsula, but others live in places like Somalia or Kenya. Kenya is one of the only places Omanis live where there is freedom of religion and a Christian majority. | 1 | 2.0% |
| Omani Arabs were among the first people in the Middle East to accept Islam. Most Omani belong to the Ibadi sect of Islam, one of the religion's oldest and most traditional branches. Ibadi principles of puritanism (including reverence for the text of the Koran) and idealism have greatly influenced Arabs in neighboring countries as well. Family ties and religious traditions are strong. | 1 | 2.0% |
