Police
Most countries have police to catch criminals, but Saudi Arabia also has a religious police force. Its name is quite long, and they’re responsible for many things. For example, the Mutaween makes sure tourists and residents behave and dress correctly.
Founding Father
King Abdul Aziz bin Rahman Al Saud proclaimed Saudi Arabia’s independence in 1932, crowning himself as king in the bargain. He had 17 wives and fathered at least 44 sons and an unknown number of female children.
