== History ==
Qatar's {{i|Economy}} [[economy]] and status as a regional power rapidly grew in the 2000s. According to the {{I|UN}} [[United Nations|UN]], his economic growth, measured by GDP, was the fastest in the world during this decade. The basis of this growth lay in the exploitation of natural gas in the {{i|Ball base}} [[South Pars/North Dome Gas-Condensate Field|North Field]] during the 1990s. At the same time, the population tripled between 2001 and 2011, mostly from an influx of foreigners.

In 2003, Qatar hosted the {{I|CENTCOM}} [[United States Central Command|U.S. Central Command]] and played a major role in the invasion of {{I|Iraq}} [[Iraq]]. Then in March 2005, a suicide bomber targeted the Doha Players Theatre, killing a {{I|UK}} [[United Kingdom|British]] teacher and shocking the country, which hadn't seen anything like this before. The attacker, {{I|IslamicTerror}} [[Jihadism|Omar Ahmed Abdullah Ali]], an {{I|Egypt}} [[Egypt|Egyptian]] living in Qatar, was linked to {{I|ISIS}} [[Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula]].

Qatar, officially the State of Qatar, is a 🟢 wealthy 🟢 monarchist 🟢 Gulf state in the 🟢 Middle East. Being geographically in the 🟢 Arabian Peninsula, as well as having a majority 🟢 Kebab population and large amounts of oil reserves, Qatar has the ability to join the 🟢 Arab League, 🟢 Gulf Cooperation Council, 🟢 OIC, and 🟢 OPEC. And like almost every other country, he has membership to the 🟢 United Nations. It is rumored that Qatar uses immigrants as 🟢 slaves to build his big projects.

Qatar is more of a 🟢 corporation than a country. His leaders maintain the status and wealth by manipulating the wider 🟢 world as much as by governing his own national affairs, and this involves playing off enemies against each other. Qatar lend considerable support to 🟢 terrorist organizations on one hand, while catering to the western and cultural strategic threats on the other. This double dealing is helped to be covered up by 🟢 Al Jazeera Media Network.

History

Qatar declared his 🟢 independence on 1 September 1971. Under an agreement with the 🟢 United Kingdom on 3 September, the "special treaty arrangements" that were "inconsistent with full international responsibility as a sovereign and independent state" were terminated.

In 1991, Qatar played a significant role in the 🟢 Gulf War, particularly during the Battle of 🟢 Khafji in which Qatari tanks rolled through the streets of the town and provided fire support for 🟢 Saudi Arabian National Guard units that were engaging 🟢 Iraqi Army troops. Qatar allowed coalition troops from 🟢 Canada to use the country as an airbase to launch aircraft on combat air patrol duty and also permitted air forces from the 🟢 United States and 🟢 France to operate in his territories.

In 1995, Emir 🟢 Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani seized control of the country from his father 🟢 Khalifa bin Hamad Al Thani, with the support of the 🟢 armed forces and cabinet, as well as neighbouring states and France. Under Emir Hamad, Qatar experienced a moderate degree of 🟢 liberalization, including the launch of the 🟢 Al Jazeera television station (1996), the endorsement of 🟢 women's suffrage or right to vote in municipal elections (1999), drafting his first written 🟢 constitution (2005) and inauguration of a 🟢 Roman Catholic church (2008).

Qatar's 🟢 economy and status as a regional power rapidly grew in the 2000s. According to the 🟢 UN, his economic growth, measured by GDP, was the fastest in the world during this decade. The basis of this growth lay in the exploitation of natural gas in the 🟢 North Field during the 1990s. At the same time, the population tripled between 2001 and 2011, mostly from an influx of foreigners.

In 2003, Qatar hosted the 🟢 U.S. Central Command and played a major role in the invasion of 🟢 Iraq. Then in March 2005, a suicide bomber targeted the Doha Players Theatre, killing a 🟢 British teacher and shocking the country, which hadn't seen anything like this before. The attacker, 🟢 Omar Ahmed Abdullah Ali, an 🟢 Egyptian living in Qatar, was linked to 🟢 Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula. Qatar's increasing influence, especially during the Arab Spring and his involvement in the 2011 Bahraini uprising, only worsened tensions with his neighbors: 🟢 Saudi Arabia, the 🟢 UAE, and 🟢 Bahrain.

In 2010, Qatar won the right to host the 2022 🟢 FIFA World Cup, making him the first country in the 🟢 Middle East to be selected to host the tournament. The awarding increased further investment and developments within the nation during the 2010s. In June 2013, Sheikh 🟢 Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani became the emir of Qatar after his father handed over power. Sheikh Tamim has prioritized improving the domestic 🟢 welfare of citizens, which includes establishing advanced healthcare and education systems, and expanding the country's infrastructure in preparation for the hosting of the 2022 World Cup.

In 2014, Qatar made a 10-billion-dollar fund to invest in 🟢 Chinese infrastructure, real estate and healthcare.

Qatar hosted the 2022 🟢 FIFA World Cup from 21 November to 18 December, becoming the first 🟢 Arab and 🟢 Muslim-majority country to do so, and the third 🟢 Asian country to host it following the 2002 FIFA World Cup in 🟢 Japan and 🟢 South Korea.
