034: Sultan of Oman

In this episode of the Sultanate, I talk about the life and death of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said Al Said.

On this day, July 23, in 1970, Sultan Qaboos bin Said Al Said took power from his father Sultan Said bin Taimur Al Said in a coup d'état. This was the day that the Sultanate of Oman entered into its renaissance, and this day is celebrated as Renaissance Day.

Who is Sultan Qaboos, what is the renaissance, and why is he revered among Omanis?
