In 1971, a young Emirati named Abdullah Mohammed Al-Maainah entered a flag design competition for a union that didn't yet exist. His entry, chosen from hundreds, would become the flag of the United Arab Emirates. This episode explores how a 19-year-old sketched a symbol of unity using the Pan-Arab colours, the controversy over the green stripe, and how the flag flew for the first time at Union House in Dubai on December 2, 1971. We follow Al-Maainah's journey from a schoolboy in Abu Dhabi to a diplomat, and the flag's evolution into a national icon. Along the way, we discuss the Trucial States Council's push for a federation, the rivalry between Abu Dhabi and Dubai, and the delicate negotiations that led to a seven-emirate union. The episode also touches on the flag's protocol, its use in UAE National Day celebrations, and how it represents the Bani Yas and Qawasim tribes that shaped the nation. #AbdullahAlMaainah #UAEFlag #PanArabColors #UnionHouse #TrucialStates #BaniYas #Qawasim #SheikhZayed #SheikhRashid #December1971 #UAEHistory #FlagDesign #MiddleEast #NationalIdentity #FexingoHistory #History #Podcast #Emirates Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
