Saudi Arabia! A name which probably reminds you of tons and tons of oil, women in Abayas and rich Arab Sheikhs! Well, there is a lot more to Saudi Arabia than just this. It’s a beautiful country with great infrastructure facilities and stunning camels! Yep, camels are one very common thing in Saudi Arabia. While the Western world treats it as an ally, you can see some basic human rights being violated right in front of your nose, especially when it comes to women’s rights.

6. Now let’s address the elephant in the room – the death penalty is still commonly used in Saudi Arabia. In 2013, for example, 69 people literally lost their heads, but nowadays it seems that being a “swordsman” isn’t as lucrative or prestigious, so they’ve come up with an alternative method of dealing with criminals – firing squad… Seriously?
7. In Saudi Arabia any form of sorcery or magic is strictly forbidden. Well, first of all, magic isn’t real, SA, welcome to the real world. And two – even if it were real, don’t you think that you’d get more use from the magicians if they were, oh I dunno… ALIVE? What a waste.
8. Tipping a car onto i
