Northern Bay Territory.
Originally, Qatar and East Africa's Northern Bay Territory in East Africa (UAE) had not shared a border. But with East Africa's "bandit suppression" campaign, the borderlands between Qatar and the Arabian Peninsula had also fallen into East African hands.
This region was also rather disputed, lying at the intersection of East Africa, Qatar, the Ottoman Empire, the Kingdom of Hejaz, and the Internal Governance Kingdom.
East Africa had been able to extend its influence here so smoothly thanks to the Arab Revolt that erupted in 1916.
The Kingdom of Hejaz was a kingdom founded by the Hashemite family, the same family that would later become the Jordanian royal house. As the Ottoman Empire's power declined, the Hashemite family had used the Arab Revolt to gain independence.
The so-called Arab Revolt had in fact been a nationalist movement that erupted on the Arabian Peninsula. Although there were many Arab religion countries, the ethnic makeup of Arab religion countries or regions did not equate to Arabs, as in Persia, the Ottoman Empire, North Africa, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and other Arab religion regions.
The Ottoman Empire was not an Arab state either. Its ruling class belonged to a branch of the Turks, and this was precisely the root cause of the nationalist movement on the Arabian Peninsula.
Unfortunately, the Arab Revolt had collided with East Africa's expansion into the Persian Gulf region. After occupying the Northern Bay Territory, East Africa had thus smoothly fished up quite a few territories.
East Africa's actions were much like when the Syrian regime had fallen into turmoil in its previous life, and surrounding powers such as Turkey and Israel had taken advantage of the fire to loot and seize Syrian territory.
The only difference was that the Arab Revolt had not been stirred
