King Fahd
King Fahd was the King of Saudi Arabia from 1982 until his death in 2005. He was notable for modernizing the country and expanding its infrastructure, including healthcare and education. During his reign, Saudi Arabia played a significant role in global oil markets and maintained close ties with the United States, particularly during the Gulf War in 1991. Fahd introduced reforms, such as a new constitution, but his rule was also marked by strict adherence to Islamic law. His legacy includes both advancements in the national economy and ongoing debates about governance and human rights in Saudi Arabia.
