Oman: A Seafaring nation

---

Oman: a Seafaring Nation reveals the crucial role of the sea in shaping Oman's historical and cultural identity. Compiled by the Ministry of Information and Culture, the book traces Oman's thousands-year-long seafaring tradition, from ancient maritime trade and long expeditions to East Africa and India, to the glory of the Omani fleet during the reign of the early sultans. Through historical narrative, illustrations, and archival documentation, the book illustrates how navigational skills, the construction of traditional vessels like the dhow, and international maritime connections made Oman one of the leading seafaring nations in the Indian Ocean region. Furthermore, the book highlights the role of seafaring in Oman's economic, cultural, and diplomatic development up to the modern era. This work is a valuable reference for readers seeking to understand the sea's central role in Omani civilization and its contribution to shaping the nation's identity.
