Abu Dhabi was formed in the early 1900s, when the tribes were united by Sheik Zayed. The economy of the city was mainly based on the trade of pearls, but when Japan entered this branch, it started to decline and Abu Dhabi found a new resource that would provide security, namely oil. Later, in 1971, the United Arab Emirates was formed, under the leadership of the Emir of Abu Dhabi.
