An appreciation of the history of Oman—one of the oldest independent nations on earth—is indispensable to understanding both Oman’s people and its modern policies. It is history, long remembered and routinely celebrated through oral tradition, the arts, and cultural tourism that is at the very heart of Oman’s collective identity, informing its domestic behavior and guiding its foreign relations. It is history, including victories, defeats, and lessons learned that renders Oman’s particular journey into modernity unique unto itself.
