Arab American History Arab Americans encompass people from 22 nations of North Africa and the Middle East. Southeastern Michigan accounts for one of the largest concentrations of Arabs outside the Middle East. It can be difficult to trace when some Arab Americans actually arrived in the US due to inaccuracy of census records as they do not have a classification for Arab heritage and people identify themselves differently (100 Questions and Answers About Arab Americans).

For some, the Arab spring (whether is understood to be successfully or not) certainly represent the turning point in relations in the Middle East. A hundred years since the creation of borders between the countries of the Levant, the Maghreb and the Middle East, there was their collapse. When one mentions the Middle East, it is seen as a huge area where ancient civilizations were, some of the oldest cities in the world, but also the young states of today. A hundred years after rendering the…

9/11, Arab actors have been heavily type cast into playing a similar type of role in television. This is usually the role of the villain and in within the crime genre, often a terrorist.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a fascinating country located southeast of the Arabian Peninsula, bordering Saudi Arabia. The UAE, specifically Dubai, is considered one of the most desirable locations to have a head office. This is because the area is growing exponentially (Culture and Work Styles, 2014).

I’m referring to the Arab Spring, a powerful movement in full force with people in the Middle East/North Africa region uprising against the cruelty of their government.
