One the wealthy, oil-rich emirates along the western shore of the Persian gulf, Thamin, under its rulers in the Al-Falahi Clan survived the End of Peak Oil by diversifying into other forms of energy, such as vast Solar Farms in Saudi Arabia. An Emir Bandar 'Bandar the Great', was one of the financiers who invested in the cooperative enterprise that would later becomes known as Aemal Bina al-Biya or "Emalbin" and since becoming part of the globe-spanning enterprise, the city-state has only prospered further.

Of course only citizens and members of the Al-Thamin tribe share in the dividends of the al-Falahi's investments. All the poor jobs are done by foreign workers who exist in Thamin only by the sufferance of their patrons and employers.
