the Middle Easts exports and Imports


Did you know that oil is the most internationally traded good?  And did you know that the Middle East significantly exports more oil than any other region. In fact, the Middle East has two thirds of the 1trillion barrels of the world’s oil reserves. Besides oil the Middle East also exports clothing, minerals, iron, chemicals, steel, automotive parts, and textiles. Also the Middle East imports beef from the U.S . In 2010 the amount of beef imported by the Middle East went up by 75 percent. If you want more interesting fact click here.

    I thought it was interesting that one of the main languages in the Middle East is Arabic. It is spoken by over 220 million people. Not only do they have different words, they have a different alphabet. Since the Middle East has a lot of the world's oil and there are so many political problems in that area, it would be cool and fun to learn the language. It might also lead to a great job! Learning the language would take a long time, but it would be worth it.
