Aden City Yemen, in the mid 1900s the most important city of Arabia and the 2nd most important port just after new york with a ship every 1/2 hour.
تقع مدينة عدن اليمنية على ساحل البحر العربي بالقرب من باب المندب مدخل البحر الأحمر وعند نقطة التقاء قارتي آسيا وإفريقيا. وتعتبر من المدن القديمة حيث سجل التاريخ تجارتها العظيمة مع الفينيقيين وشهرتها منذ القرن السابع قبل الميلاد كمركز للتجارة البحرية ومحطة لتجارة البخور والتوابل وممر للقوافل وترجع أهمية عدن أيضاً إلى أنها تمثل ميناءً بحرياً طبيعياً جعل القوى الكبرى ذات المصالح التجارية والاقتصادية تحرص على الاستفادة من عدن أبلغ فائدة. وفي العصر الحديث وخلال الفترة 1850 وحتى 1969 أقامت عدن أول نظام للتجارة الحرة في المنطقة العربية وبكفاءة عالية، بل واحتلت المركز الرابع بين موانئ العالم من حيث الأهمية. وازدادت أهمية ميناء عدن حتى وصل عدد البواخر التي تدخل الميناء في عام 1950 ما بين 40 - 50 باخرة يومياً وبمعدل باخرة واحدة كل نصف ساعة، مما جعل ميناء عدن يحتل المرتبة الثانية بعد ميناء مدينة نيويورك مباشرة خضعت عدن للاحتلال البريطاني في الفترة 1839-1967، وقد كانت مركز السيطرة بالنسبة للاحتلال البريطاني الذي كان ايضاً يحتل معظم المناطق المحاذية للساحل الجنوبي لليمن. خلال فترة الاحتلال تحولت عدن لمركز تجاري اقليمي ودولي، حيث مثلت نقطة لتبادل البضائع بين الشرق والغرب، وكانت من أشهر الموانئ العالمية. في عام 1967، وبعد نجاح الثورة ضد الانجليز، سيطرت الجبهة القومية على الحكم، ونشأت جمهورية اليمن الديمقراطية الشعبية وعاصمتها عدن. الجمهورية الوليدة خضعت للحكم الاشتراكي حتى 1990، حيث تم أعادة توحيد شطري اليمن. خلال فترة الحكم الاشتراكي فقدت عدن مركزها كمركز تجاري، وتحولت تدريجياً لمدينة مغلقة، وقد استمر الوضع حتى قيام الجمهورية اليمنية، حيث تحولت عدن رسمياً إلى منطقة حرة، ولكنها لم تنجح حتى الآن في استعادة موقعها التجاري العالمي. مصرى وكر العصفور rap In 1838, Sultan Muhsin bin Fadl of the state of Lahej in Yemen including/sold Aden to the British. On 19 January 1839, the British East India Company landed Royal Marines at Aden to occupy the territory and stop attacks by pirates against British shipping to India. The port lies about equidistant from the Suez Canal, Bombay (Mumbai), and Zanzibar, which were all important former British possessions. Aden had been an entrepôt and a way-station for seamen in the ancient world. There, supplies, particularly water, were replenished. So, in the mid-nineteenth century, it became necessary to replenish coal and boiler water. Thus Aden acquired a coaling station at Steamer Point. Aden was to remain under British control until 1967.

Queen of Sheba, Queen of Yemen and Arabia, A Discovery channel production USA بلقيس بنت ال
Queen of Sheba, Queen of Yemen and Arabia, A Discovery channel production USA بلقيس بنت الهدهاد بن شرحبيل، ملكة سبأ، وصاحبة القصة المشهورة في القرآن مع نبي الله سليمان. كانت من بيت عز وجاه وملك، وحكمت مملكتها سبأ باليمن، وهي أقدم الممالك اليمنية العربية، وجاء ذكرها في التوراة، وفي بعض النقوش التي خلفها الملك سرجون ملك آشور (720-705 ق.م) وكانت عاصمتها مأرب بعد أن انتقلت من صرواح.
كان لبلقيس شأن عظيم في قومها ودولتها، حيث أوتيت من الملك والنعم الكثير، وكانت تعبد الشمس هي وقومها ذو العتاد والعدة والمنعة في زمانهم. وقد ورد ذكر قصتها في القرآن الكريم دون التصريح باسمها، حيث إنها عاصرت نبي الله سليمان عليه السلام الذي آتاه الله الملك، ووضع تحت يديه الإنس والجن، وأتاه علمًا يعرف به منطق الطير (لغته) ﴿وحشر لسليمان جنوده من الجن والإنس والطير فهم يوزعون﴾ النمل: 17 .
علم سليمان بأمر بلقيس وعبادتها وقومها للشمس من دون الله، فأرسل إليها يطلبها هي وقومها مسلمين مذعنين، فاستشارت وزراءها وأرسلت رسلها بهدايا ثمينة إلى سليمان لتسكته أو لتعرف نيته وتفكيره، فرفض الهدية ﴿فلما جاء سليمان قال أتمدوننِ بمال فما آتانِ الله خير مما آتاكم بل أنتم بهديتكم تفرحون﴾ النمل: 36. وعادت الرسل بالهدية فتيقنت أنه نبي صادق كريم فصارت إليه بقومها مذعنة مستسلمة، وقبل وصولها أمر سليمان جنوده أن يحملوا عرشها إليه، فلما وصلت وجدته أمامها وقد تبدلت فيه أجزاء قليلة، فلما سئلت عنه قالت كأنه هو، فازدادت هدى ويقينًا وأسلمت مع سليمان لرب العالمين وقالت ﴿رب إني ظلمت نفسي وأسلمت مع سليمان لله رب العالمين﴾ النمل: 44.
وقصتها مفصلة في التفاسير في سورة النمل وبعض كتب التاريخ The country Sheba or Saba, whose name means Host of Heaven and peace, was Abyssinia. Located in southwest Arabia on the eastern tip of the Red Sea, Sheba was thriving about 3000 years ago and occupied 483,000 square miles of mountains, valleys (wadis) and deserts in the area of present day Yemen. Some historians claim that Ethiopia, on the western end of the Red Sea, was also part of Sheba's territory.
Sheba: The Ancient Empire
The country Sheba or Saba, whose name means Host of Heaven and peace, was Abyssinia. Located in southwest Arabia on the eastern tip of the Red Sea, Sheba was thriving about 3000 years ago and occupied 483,000 square miles of mountains, valleys (wadis) and deserts in the area of present day Yemen. Some historians claim that Ethiopia, on the western end of the Red Sea, was also part of Sheba's territory.
Sheba was a wealthy country with an advanced irrigation system. Its people, the Sabaeans, built dams as high as 60 feet with spans of almost a mile. They cut large earthen wells ito the Earth, which allowed them to irrigate their abundant gardens. Sheba was also rich in gold and other precious stones. But her real wealth was in her exclusive trade in frankincense and exotic spices sought by neighboring kingdoms.
Sheba also had a very lucrative caravan trade. By 1000 B.C., camels frequently traveled the 1400 miles up the "Incense Road" and along the Red Sea to Israel. The Road began in the port of Al Mukulla and Bir Ali where ships would bring goods from distant India and the Orient.
Frankincense is unique to Yemen since it is derived from the sap of a certain tree that grows only in Yemen. Frankincense was used as an offering to the gods and its rich perfumed smoke would rise like prayers to the heavens. It's aroma also made it valuable during cremations and it was often heaped on funeral pyres. Another Sabaean spice was Myrrh, an ingredient in fragrant oils and cosmetics. It was also used in preparing bodies for burial. الجزائر البحرين الامارات الكويت عمان قطر السعوديه خليجية مصر لبنان العراق ليبيا المغرب سورية السودان تونس الأردن فلسطين

Land of the Queen of Sheba... where coffee was discovered and its famous port of Moka history of yemen 1200 BCE: Rich culture. 950-115 BCE: Kingdom of Sheba, whose riches were based upon caravan trade and agriculture with artificial watering. Around 400: The Sabaean king of Yemen visits Yathrib in Arabia, and converts to Judaism. He makes it the state religion of Yemen. 7th century: Conversion into Islam, the region joins the Caliphate.
Sanaa sometimes spelled Sanaa or Sana'a) is the capital of Yemen and the centre of San'a' Governorate. San'a' is located at 15.354722° N 44.20667° E and has a population of 1,747,627 (2004 census).
San'a' lies in the heart of Yemeni highlands on a plateau at an altitude of 2200m surrounded by several mountains, notably Jabal Nuqum and Aiban. The city is around 320 km north of Aden.
San'a' is one of the ancient Yemeni cities dating back to the Sabaean dynasty of the 6th Century BC. The oldest written reference to its existence is found in inscriptions which date back to the 1st Century AD. It is suggested that San'a' was the capital of the Himyarite kingdom at the onset of the 6th Century AD. When King Yousef Athar (or Dhu Nuwas), the last of the Himyarite kings, was in power, San'a' was also the capital of the Ethiopian viceroys, then after 570 of the Persians. As of the dawn of Islam until the detachment of independent sub-states in many parts of Yemen Islamic Caliphate, San'a' persisted as the governing seat, who himself is Caliph's deputy in running the affairs of one of Yemen's Three Makhalifs: Mikhlaf San'a', Mikhlaf al-Janad and Mikhlaf Hadhramawt. The city of San'a' recurrently assumed an important status and all Yemenite States competed to control it. The Mamelukes arrived in Yemen in AD 1517. Following the collapse of the Mamelukes in Egypt at the hands of the Ottoman Turks, Yemen fell under the Ottoman Rule and during the first Ottoman rule of Yemen between 1538-1635, San'a' became the capital of the Ottoman Vilayet and also during the Ottoman second rule 1872-1918. In 1918, San'a' was the capital of Imam Yahya, who ruled North Yemen. At the onset of the 1962 revolution which deposed the imamate rule, it became the capital of the Arab Republic of Yemen. It was then the capital of unified Yemen in 1990 where it is dubbed as the historical capital of Yemen.
The old, fortified city has been inhabited for more than 2500 years and contains a wealth of intact architectural gems. It was declared a World Heritage City by the United Nations in 1984. Efforts are underway to preserve some of the oldest buildings, some of which are over 400 years old. Surrounded by ancient clay walls which stand six to nine metres (20-30ft) high, the old city boasts over 100 mosques, 12 hammams (baths) and 6500 houses. Many of the houses look rather like ancient skyscrapers -- reaching several storeys high and topped with flat roofs, they are decorated with elaborate friezes and intricately carved windows. One of the most popular attractions is Suq al-Milh (Salt Market), where it is possible to buy not only salt but also bread, spices, raisins, cotton, copper, pottery, silverware, antiques, and a host of other goods. The majestic seventh century al-Jami'a l-Kabir (The Great Mosque) is one of the oldest in the Muslim world. BÄb al-Yaman "Yemen Gate" is an iconized entry point through the city walls and is over 700 years old. (wikipedia)
