🇧🇭 Bahrain

Bahrain (ISO-Code: BH) is an island nation in the Persian Gulf, located south of Qatar and connected to the Arabian Peninsula by bridges. Politically, it is a constitutional monarchy with stable government structures and growing economic significance in the Gulf region. The climate is arid, characterized by very hot summers, mild winters, and low precipitation. Economically, Bahrain relies on oil and gas exports, financial services, trade, and industry, with the service sector increasingly gaining importance. Foreign trade focuses on oil products, aluminum, and financial services, while the country is heavily dependent on imports for consumer goods, machinery, and food. Bahrain plays a central transit role in the Persian Gulf, especially through the Khalifa bin Salman Port and modern airport facilities. The national currency is the Bahraini Dinar (BHD), which is among the most stable currencies in the region. The logistical infrastructure includes ports, road, and rail connections that efficiently support regional and international goods transport. Due to its strategic location, stable administration, and modern infrastructure, Bahrain is considered a significant hub for trade, financial services, and industry in the Gulf region.
