Saudi Arabia is a country in the Middle East that occupies most of the Arabian Peninsula. It has coastlines along both the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf.

Saudi Arabia is known as the birthplace of Islam and is home to its two holiest cities, Mecca and Medina, which attract millions of pilgrims every year during Hajj and Umrah.

The country has one of the world's largest economies, largely driven by oil production, but it is also diversifying through large-scale development projects such as Vision 2030. Its capital, Riyadh, is a major political and financial center, while cities like Jeddah serve as key commercial and cultural hubs.
