that is not "competing"

that is called being used

india, yes

china, yes

japan, in a way - US involvement is questionable

saudi arabia, yes

lmao the east is degenerate

If Islam needs to proper we'd oughta look to the west

Saudi can only compete due to its geographical advantages. Considering they're right next to a oil supply.

that's not the only area saudi competes

they are also one of the global leaders in digital construction right now

which has little to do with oil

If you say so.

hoping that's directed at the first part

oil definitely isn't used to build their skyscrapers

pretty sure that'd be a shitty building

Look how they were in like 1900

Just a few nomads and sand

Only Hejaz was sorta modernized

And that wasn’t even by the saudis

The middle East stopped being great after Mohammed ran around killing anyone that wouldn't join his death cult.

after the Great Turkish War and Russo-Polish wars the ottomans and the rest of the Islamic world was in decay

The ottomans were the last Islamic civilization to stagnate

Persia and the other Islamic states were already in decline by the time the ottomans lost steam
