00:00I am going to tell you about Damam City, which is located in Saudi Arabia.
00:04And how was this city before oil was discovered in this city?
00:08And why did the British refuse to help Saudi Arabia?
00:11Despite the prohibition of gambling, a lot of gambling is done here for camels and horses.
00:16Damam City is located in the eastern province of Saudi Arabia,
00:19whose borders are with Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Yemen and the United Arab Emirates.
00:25While on the inside of Damam are Riyadh and Fukran.
00:28Damam is the most developed city in Saudi Arabia and has a special place in the world due to its industry.
00:35This city is also known as Al-Damam.
00:38Friends, before the discovery of oil, Saudi Arabia was a very poor country.
00:42For the first time in 1908, oil was discovered near Damam Mosque in the mountains of northwestern Fars.
00:48From there, the fate of Saudi Arabia changed.
00:50Friends, let me tell you one more thing here that
00:53when Saudi Arabia appealed to the British for help in this distance,
00:56the British not only refused to help, but even said that who knows Saudi Arabia.
01:03After a few years, Saudi Arabia's reputation will end in the world.
01:07Then after that, oil wells were dug in Damam City first.
01:11Here the amount of oil was found to be very low.
01:13The agreement to extract oil was made with an American company,
01:16which refused to extract oil.
01:18Later, Saudi Arabia's agreement was made with another company.
01:21On March 4, 1938, everything suddenly changed in Damam.
01:26On that day, oil began to come out of the oil well at a depth of 1.5 meters and 1,610 barrels per day.
01:34This is how Saudi Arabia got its first success due to Damam City.
01:38The world's largest oil reserves are found in the area of Damam.
01:42That is, 40% of the world's oil is present near Damam.
