The Sultan of Oman (Adopted by British Muslims)

The Sultan of Oman is the nation’s hereditary monarch and head of state, leading the government and representing the country internationally. Historically, Oman maintained a merchant and maritime tradition, seeking stability and modernization under the Sultan’s guidance. While Oman was a British protectorate in the early 20th century, it was never fully colonized; instead, it had treaties and agreements with Britain that influenced its governance. British interest in Oman was primarily strategic, protecting maritime routes and regional stability. Today, the Sultan remains a central figure, combining traditional authority with efforts toward development and reform within the framework of Oman’s unique history and cultural identity.
