      Dubai is a country that produces nothing but petroleum. The only reason the royal family is rich is because of cars. There is nothing else made there. There is no other trade. The world is moving towards renewables, which means that you should expect it to slowly disintegrate.

        Dubai doesn’t have oil. They have been a trade hub and they can continue trading.
