In case you are curious why the Ottoman's did not rule all the of Arabian Peninsula here is an explanation from Fanack,com **// … The rest of Arabia fell under the rule of local tribal chiefs. Ottoman sultans were concerned mainly with the security of the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, the [|pilgrimage] destinations of Ottoman and other Muslims. Lack of significant economic resources, coupled with a [|harsh climate] made direct rule in Arabia an unattractive adventure. The Ottomans maintained indirect rule to ensure the security of the pilgrimage. This allowed local power centres in Arabia to compete for the control of the meagre resources and trade routes. Local emirates based in oases and small towns rose and fell throughout the years, without any being able to unify the territory into a single polity.//** 2/4 12345 - Background Gunpowder / Global Context 1.
