The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, once the Persian Empire was formed, feared it may be at risk of invasion (since Saudi-Iranian relations were relatively hostile), and almost immediately annexed Yemen and Oman. The United Arab Emirates, which was at the time engaged in a war against Saudi Arabia along with the Allied States, was quickly defeated and annexed. Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait followed by joining the new Kingdom relatively peacefully. This all occurred in early November 2012.
