| - For a period, Benzheen was a moderate regional power, but over time, as its power declined, the emirate came under heavy influence from the United Kingdom, though Benzheen was never formally part of the British Empire, or a British protectorate. Benzheen has long-standing military and political ties with the United Kingdom and the United States, although it maintains an independent foreign policy. In November 2010, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) listed Benzheen, from among 136 countries worldwide, as the nation most-improved during the preceding 40 years. According to international indices, Benzheen is one of the most developed and stable countries in the Arab World, and has the highest per-capita income on Earth. Until 2016, Benzheen was an absolute monarchy in which the Emir of Benzheen exercised ultimate authority but its parliament had some legislative and oversight powers. However, in January of that year, a coalition of student protestors and military leaders overthrew the Emir of Benzheen, replacing him with an interim government composed of the cabal of military generals who engineered the coup. On 20 January, the Emir ceded all authority and transferred power to the Armed Forces of Benzheen. The military immediately dissolved the Benzheeni Parliament and promised to lift the Emir's "emergency laws". Benzheen's military government is currently being led by Colonel Faroud. Its capital is Benzheen City.
