    WEEKLY CURRICULUM PLANNER LESSON I THE MAIN GEOGRAPHIC FEATURES OF UAE GRADE IX UAE LO: Recognize the main geographic features of the UAE and determine their impact on people, ecosystems, and economies. Location The United Arab Emirates , sometimes simply called the Emirates, is a country in Western Asia located at the eastern end of the Arabian Peninsula. It borders Oman and Saudi Arabia, and has maritime borders in the Persian Gulf with Qatar and Iran. The Geography of the United Arab Emirates The United Arab Emirates stretches south from the Arabian Gulf with a land consisting of three geographical zones: (1) a flat, barren, low-lying area with a mixture of sandy desert, gravel, and salt flats (2) rolling sand dunes that expand from the coast to the south of the country and blend into the Empty Quarter(Al-Rub-Al-Khali) (3) part of the Al-Hajar Mountain Range, which the UAE shares with the Sultanate of Oman on the Musandam Peninsula. The UAE has two coastlines: the Arabian Gulf Coast, and a shorter coast that extends on the Gulf of Oman. The UAE has many islands. In particular, the emirate of Abu Dhabi has more than 200 islands. Mountains The highest points in the UAE are mountains, like Jebel Jais (1,934m), Jebel Yibir (1,927m), and Jebel Hafeet (1,240m), although the summit of Jebel Jais lies in the territory of Musandam. In Dubai, there is the iconic waterway known as Dubai Creek, or Khor Dubai. WEEKLY CURRICULUM PLANNER Oases Oases add life to barren areas and create many different ecosystems in the UAE.

  • Mountains in Asia and Their Location
    Mountains in asia and their location Continue Wikipedia's List of Asian Terrain articles This page lists the highest natural altitude of each sovereign country on the geographically defined Asian continent. Countries sometimes associated with Asia politically and culturally, but not as a geographical part of Asia, are not included in this list of physical characteristics (with the exception of Cyprus - marked with an N/A rating). Not all of the points on this list are mountains or hills, some are simply in distinguishable altitudes as geographical characteristics. Notes are provided in case of territorial disputes or conflicts affecting the list. Some countries such as Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Russia (Elbrus) have part of their territory and their high points outside Asia; Their non-Asian high scores are listed with an N/A rated entry below their continental peak. Three other entoes from the most recognized countries with the highest scores in Asia are listed and ranked in Inalic. For more details, see List of states with limited recognition.

The country is a federation of seven emirates consisting of Abu Dhabi (which serves as the capital), Ajman, Dubai, Fujairah, Ras Flag al-Khaimah, Sharjah and Umm al-Quwain. Each emirate is governed by a ruler; together, they jointly form the Federal Emblem ﻋﻳﺷﻲ ﺑﻼدي :Supreme Council.

Burial sites dating back to the Neolithic Age and the Bronze Age include the oldest known such inland site at Jebel Buhais. Following decades of maritime conflict, the coastal emirates became known as the Trucial States with the signing of a Perpetual Treaty of Maritime Peace with the British in 1819 (ratified in 1853 and again in 1892), which established the Trucial States as a British Protectorate.
