What happens here /int/?
Why do you never hear anything about this place even though every country around it (Other than UAE) is either embroiled in war or run by religious fanatics? What gives?
>>52942468
Bump for interest.
>>52942468
Isn't Oman just what UAE was before they build the skyscrapers?
It's probably like a gated community for rich old arabs.
Kinda like Muslim Florida.
It's run by a gay old sultan with no successor
We will see what happens in the next 10 years
the least durka country in the world

>High HDI
>Their sultan is very liked. Led a coup against his father in 1970 to become leader
>He's 75 with no sons or declared heir
>GOAT nature
>Close diplomatic ties to the British
>They're Ibadi Muslims which pre-date the Sunni/Shiite division
That's all I know from memory
>>52943692
I don't believe you.

Nigga it's the ONLY country in the world where Sunnis and Shiaas pray in the same mosque
It's an unusually apolitical Gulf country.
Anytime diplomats from countries who hate each other meet in secret, Oman is one of their choices because it's seen as neutral.

Ibadis don't predate sunni-shia division. You are mixing them up with the Harici, who can be considered the "ancestor" of Ibadi mezheb.
>tfw really want to explore Oman but it is too expensive to go there
We had a good bit of exchange students from there at my uni actually.
I was scanning passports for the department and quite a few of them were from Oman. It was the first time I think I had even heard of the place. I remember one of the dude's passports smelling like it was drenched in cologne.
Don't know much else though sorry family
It's pretty gay place to be honest. Or they aren't gay, but they just want to have sex with men. I went to a cafe and there was a group of guys and they immediately started eyeing me and sent the waiter to bring me anything I wanted. Walk around in the streets and they follow you with their car and try to seduce you to come with them.
Ibadis are the least degenerate muslims tbqh
Not that that's an accomplishment.
Also didn't they have an empire all the way towards Zanzibar?
Also Omani people seem to think that all Western men are at least somewhat gay. So a white guy is instant free prey.

What were you doing in Oman?
>>52945663
Enjoying the architecture and mountains mostly
Rich mudslimes that don't live in Saudi Arabia.
>>52945663
...working as a male escort?
Sultan over threw his dad, dumped his wife and hired fucbois.
They had a channel on tv that was HD and showed 24/7 footage of nature with classical music. Friend who worked there once mentioned coffee is not popular.
That's all I know and I'm not even sure if it's correct, except for the fucbois I'm sure about that.

Jordan-san are you a rare flag
we're close allies with them actually, do a lot of trading and military co-operation
Oman is a nice, rich country. It doesn't have skyscrapers, but its quality of life is high.
Its population is Ibadi Muslim, which is neither Sunni nor Shiite. So they're pretty much the definition of "peaceful Muslim".
Basically Oman is the most (and only) based Arab country.

cмeтaнa
they are funny about sex before marriage, so you have to rent a house and invite the girls over, hotels cockblock
What's Oman's relationship with Yemen? Considering how the Saudi's are acting, I'm suprised the Omani's have kinda just sat on the sidelines watching the Sauds make asses of themselves.

No, I actually so another Jordanian post today. But I don't come here quite often.
