Everyone assumes Dubai was built entirely on oil money. But the shocking truth is that oil accounts for less than 1% of Dubai’s GDP today. So, where did the billions actually come from?

In this documentary, we uncover the untold economic history of Dubai—from a starving pearl-diving village in the 1940s to the global superpower of today. We break down the massive geopolitical gambles, the "insane" engineering projects, and the specific business strategies the Al Maktoum family used to turn a crisis into an empire.

In this video, you’ll discover:

The Mikimoto Crisis: How the collapse of the pearl trade forced Dubai to innovate or die.

The Creek Gamble: Why borrowing money to dredge a muddy creek was the most important decision in the city's history.

The "Gold" Trade: The controversial smuggling era that funded the early infrastructure.

The Port to Nowhere: How Jebel Ali became the world’s largest man-made harbor against all odds.

The 7-Star Myth: The marketing genius behind the Burj Al Arab and luxury tourism.

The 2008 Crash: How Dubai survived the financial crisis and the "Golden Visa" pivot.

If you are interested in Geopolitics, Business Case Studies, or the hidden economics of the Middle East, this is the story you haven't heard.
