1- A glimpse of history to Jordan:

Throughout ages, Jordan has always been a strategic place to settle in; many civilizations
have passed by, some were very remarkable and their presence is documented till now by
the special monuments they left behind.
Around 1,500 BC Jordan was divided into highly organized kingdoms. The most
important were Moab, Edom and Amon. Then after 500 BC Arabs called the Nabateans
migrated to Jordan. They developed a rich kingdom based on the trade routes through the
area. Their capital was Petra.
In 106 AD Jordan became under the Roman rule where itcontinued to flourish and
Christianity spread.However in the 7th century Jordan was conquered by Muslims and
became part of the Islamic World. For centuries Jordan continued its traditional role of
being a trade route between other areas. Then in 1516 it became part of the Turkish
Empire.
In June 1916 a rebellion, The Great Arab Revolt began. Finally in 1918 Turkey was
defeated by the allies. However Jordan was not allowed to become independent. In 1921
it was made a British mandate. Abdullah the First was made emir. However Jordan finally
became independent in 1946 and Abdullah the First became king.
