    The British gained control of the Gulf region from the Qawasim tribal union in the early 19th century through military attacks and treaties. In 1820, British soldiers destroyed the Qawasim fleet at Ras Al Khaimah, defeating the tribe and establishing British dominance in the region.

    in the Gulf
    Overview
    The British were the ruling force in the Gulf region from 1820 to 1971. Britain’s
    initial interest in Gulf began in the seventeenth century as a result of trade and
    economic factors.

    The Qawasim tribal union controlled the Strait of Hormuz, the Gulf's entry point, in
    the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century. The Qawasim had a large fleet of
    commercial and military ships located in Ras al Khaimah and Sharjah, respectively.
    Every journey past the Strait of Hormuz gave the Qawasim large amounts of
    money.

    However, the British refused to pay these tolls, and high tensions between the
    Qawasim and the British arose. In 1820, British soldiers attacked Ras Al Khaimah
    and destroyed the entire Qawasim fleet.
