About QatarThe State of Qatar is surrounded on three sides by sea; its sole land
border is with Saudi Arabia to the south. This tiny sovereign country is
located in southwest Asia on the northeastern coast of the Arabian
Peninsula. Before the discovery of hydrocarbons, Qatar was a
pearl-trading community. Today, desert forts and traditional fishing
villages exist side by side with state-of-the-art office towers,
advanced high-tech oil and gas refineries and international commerce.
Qatar is a high income economy, backed by the world’s third largest
natural gas reserves. The country has one of the highest per capita
incomes in the world and is an influential player in the Arab world.
Qatar will host the 2022 FIFA World Cup, becoming the first Arab country to do so.
Located
halfway along the western coast of the Arabian Gulf, the 11,437 sq km
State of Qatar benefits from its key location, halfway between Europe
and Asia.
