Saudi Arabia is a part of the Middle East located between the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf. The total area of the country is 2,149,690 km2, and it has a population of 26,534,504 as of July 2012. The country experiences mostly extreme dry desert climate. After years of power struggles within the Middle East countries, the modern Saudi state was founded in 1932. The terrorist attacks in May and November 2003 made the government launch a strong campaign against domestic terrorism and extremism. The national flag of Saudi Arabia. Image Credit: CIA Factbook.
