What does it mean to be Emerati? Reflection #1

What does it means to be Emerati?
The United Arab Emirates consists of the seven small emirate, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Omm Al Qouween, Ras Al Khayyam and Fujairah.  Which ware a federal state on December 2nd 1972. The two main cultures in emirates is nomadic desert (Badwins) and the sea oriented. The United Arab Emirates is 83,000 square kilometers. The official language is Arabic. Among the immigrant  population English, Hindi, farisi and phipino spoken. English is the language of commerce. According the CIA factbook in 1982 Emirates is 19%, other Arabs and Iranian 23%, South Asian  is 50% and East Asian is only 8%. The religion is 96% Muslim (Shia 16%), Christen and Hindu is 4%acording the CIA factbook in 2012. My opinion is this small country with 83,000 square kilometers, many nationalities human with defend religions  living together with a peaceful  and happy. Most of immigration who visit UAE they don’t want to leave the country, because in Emirates we a very good security, economy and leadership. So we are living together as a one family without any problems. In addition we don’t have bigotry in religions, everyone have his religious life. I think we are one family with a deferent identity.
 I think it is very nice if all humans in this world can live as a one family and keep the nationality’s and religions  between his one world. By the way there are many associations working in this subject. for example we can see the economics of this word, first the United State of America , there is 52 states are living together as a one person, so it is kind of one  and religion. Also the European union. It is good to be near to your god. However in your one world.
