This other world is located right in the heart of the Middle East. In 1932, after a 30 year campaign by the Al Saud family, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was unified and founded. Seventy-eight years later, the nation is looked down upon by most of the globalized world as a home to a backwards society. Saudi Arabia is home to the birthplace of Islam and is a place where all observant muslims make a pilgrimage to one in their lifetime. It’s a place that is technically 100% muslim, and there is absolutely no religious tolerance. On 1 May 2009, Saudi Arabia was named by the U.S. Commission for International Religious Freedom as among the 13 most religiously oppressive countries in the world. In fact it came second, just behind North Korea.

itunes pic [https://assets.podomatic.net/ts/b8/67/bd/elijahpost/1400x1400_3062838.jpg] Transport your mind to another world for a moment. Another reality with another set of standards. This other world is located right in the heart of the Middle East. In 1932, after a 30 year campaign by the Al Saud family, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was unified and founded. Seventy-eight years later, the nation is looked down upon by most of the globalized world as a home to a backwards society. How does one solve this complicated juggernaut of ultraconservatism mixed in with all the other bad things like a hippocratic and antiquated government and a people who might not know if they are being oppressed or not? This is the problem in Saudi Arabia as discussed previously. If reform is enacted, in due time Saudi Arabia can become a real champion of human rights as it fancies itself today, and it’s progression can set a real example for change toward tranquility in the Middle East.
