Bahrain, one of the most heavily populated countries and officially known as the Kingdom of Bahrain, is a small island country.

The largest population consists of Muslims and the country is governed by the royal Khalifa family. As revealed by the 2010 census the island has a population of around 1.2 million occupants. Bahrain was previously an emirate before its declaration as an independent kingdom in 2002.
Bahrain grew as an important trade center linking Mesopotamia and the Indus valley 5000 years ago. The country has two principal cities i.e. Manama and Al Muharraq where around 89% of its population resides. Arabic is the official language although English is also widely spoken mainly in the business world. The country is considered to be among the most contemporary countries and has a rich culture with most people dressing modestly since it’s a Muslim country.
