Long an important trading center in the Persian Gulf, Manama is home to a very diverse population. After periods of Portuguese Empire, Portuguese and Persian control and invasions from the ruling dynasties of House of Saud, Saudi Arabia and House of Al Said, Oman, Bahrain established itself as an sovereign state, independent nation in 1971 after a period of British hegemony.
