The Omani Navy and its Role in the Development of Interior and Exterior Omani Trade 1741 - 1856
Main Article Content
Abstract
When Al Busaid family took power in Oman, they were able to achieve many accomplishments, especially building a naval fleet and developing it for military and commercial purposes. This family aimed at restoring the prestige of foreign trade by building the naval fleet, which was neglected during the ordeal of the civil war and foreign invasion. They were able within a short period of time to achieve stability regarding commercial prosperity of the region. During the first half of the nineteenth century the Omani fleet became in the second place after the British one; its influence expanded at the expense of regional and international powers—a matter that was reflected on its effective contribution to prosperity and economic progress.
