Federation[]

August 22: The King of Saudi Arabia and the Sultan of Oman arrives at the Al-Maquar and begins negotiations with King Hussein I and President Omar. The Saudi and Omani monarch both agree that there should be a united Arab state. They also agree that if it was ever going to occur, now was the time to do so. The only problem that arises is that if you were to unite all these Kingdoms and Sultanates how would all these monarchs work together as one unit. They decide to call the UAE, Bahrain, Syria, Qatar, and Lebanon to these meetings. After several phone calls all of the Heads of State agree to begin the meetings on August 25.

August 25-September 22: The Heads of State from Iraq-Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Oman, the UAE, Bahrain, Syria, Qatar, and Lebanon meet in the Al-Maquar. They begin the Arabian Congress much like the Continental Congresses in the 1770s in the 13 colonies. The Arabian Congress begins to discuss how this new nation would work. The UAE representative says that perhaps the nations should have their monarch have absolute control in their state and one of the monarchs chosen to be the King while the others are Emirs. Bahrain agreed with this idea but the rest do not saying that they must have a unified monarchy and not a de-centralised one. After a long argument though it becomes very apparent that the many monarchies of the middle east will never co-operate and a modified version of the UAE proposal is suggested by the Omani representative. His proposal is called the Omani Plan. The Omani Plan called for the Kings and Emirs and all the nobility of all the incorporated states to meet in Baghdad to vote for the Sultan of Arabia every time the monarch dies or abdicates. The Omani Plan was accepted and the rest of the constitution was mostly identical to Iraq-Jordan's except that the monarch had more power.
