The background to the war begins with independence. King Hamad rapidly gave in to conservatives and served more-or-less as a puppet. Communists and socialists in the country began a a revolt in Salalah. Soon the Soviets were supplying them with arms and building them a capital. In 1959 the United States, Saudi Arabia and other European powers like Europa began to supply the Royalists with weapons and other supplies. The rebels had a few early successes but were on the decline through 1959 and were on the brink of losing. So, in April 1960 the Red Army invaded the Emirates.
