Episode 14: United Arab Emirates
In All of Us Command is a podcast where we learn about countries and their national anthems. We will be drawing each new country out of a hat and taking turns researching them. In this episode, Kate takes a trip through the Arabian Peninsula and the UAE.
In Episode 14, Kate travels from the Paleolithic age through the present to learn about the United Arab Emirates and their anthem, Ishy Bilady. Join us as the Portuguese, Dutch, and English duke it out over valuable trade routes on land that doesn't belong to them, and learn about the world's tallest building: the Burj Khalifa.
