It's a small archipelago in the Persian Gulf, constituted by a great island and from other 32 smaller islands.
It's densely populated and in summer it is warm; it almost never rains. It's one of the great oil producers and natural gas; nevertheless it is also a tourist state thanks to the sea, to its islands and the privileged fiscal conditions.
