Foundation Day: History and Heroism

Hamad Al-Shuwaier

Today marks Saudi National Day, and our country is adorned with the most beautiful images expressing love for this noble homeland. and this occasion reflects a glorious history written by our forefathers and cherished by their descendants as they delve into the deep roots of a nation spanning three centuries; for the Saudi state emerged from Diriyah, carrying the banner of monotheism and peace.

Foundation Day is not merely a date; it is a story of struggle, sacrifice, and heroism, and a story of great men who led the scattered tribes of the Arabian Peninsula’s desert toward unity, security, and prosperity, when Imam Muhammad bin Saud laid the first foundation stone of this blessed nation.
