Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan (Arabic: ٱلـشَّـيْـخ زَايِـد بِـن
سُـلْـطَـان آل نَـهْـيَـان, translation: Ash-Shaykh Zāyed bin Sulṭān Āl
Nahyān); b. 06 May 1918 – d. 02 November 2004) was the Ruler of Abu Dhabi
for more than 30 years (06 August 1966 – 02 November 2004). He was the
founding father and the principal driving force behind the formation of the
United Arab Emirates, becoming the Union's first President (Arabic: رَئِـيـس,
translation: Ra’īs), a post which he held for a period of almost 33 years
(1971 until his death in 2004). He is popularly referred to in the UAE as
the Father of the Nation. |

Currency:
Dirham = 100 fils |
| Before the formation of UAE and independence of other Gulf
states in 1971, Indian Rupee and Gulf Rupee were commonly used in this region.
In the early to mid 20th century, the Indian Rupee was extensively used as
currency in the countries of the Persian Gulf and Arabian Peninsula. To reduce
the strain put on India's foreign reserves by gold smuggling caused by this
external use of the rupee, a separate currency was created. The Gulf rupee was
introduced by the Indian government in 1959 as a replacement for the Indian
Rupee, for circulation exclusively outside the country. At the time, the Indian
Rupee was pegged to the British Pound at a rate of 13⅓ rupees = 1 pound. Two
states, Kuwait and Bahrain, replaced the Gulf Rupee with their own currencies
(the Kuwaiti Dinar and the Bahraini Dinar) after gaining independence from
Britain in 1961 and 1965, respectively. Kuwaiti Dinar was equal to 13⅓ Rupees
or 1 British Pound and Bahrani Dinar became equal to 10 Rupees or 0.75 British
Pound. On 06 June 1966, India devalued the Rupee. To avoid following this
devaluation, several of the states using the Rupee adopted their own currencies.
Qatar and most of the Trucial States adopted the Qatar and Dubai Riyal, whilst
Abu Dhabi adopted the Bahraini Dinar.
Federation of six states as United Arab
Emirates (Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Dubai, Fujairah, Sharjah, and Umm al-Qaiwain) was
formed on 02nd Dec 1971 as an independent country. Ras al-Khaimah later also
joined this federation on 11 Feb 1972. In 1973 United Arab Emirate Dirham was
introduced which is pegged with US Dollar. |
- before 01st April 1957:
India Rupee = 16 Anna = 64 Pice (Paise).
- 01st April 1957:
India Rupee = 100 Naye (New) Paise.
- 11th May 1959:
Gulf Rupee = 100 Paise.
- 16th June 1966:
Saudi Riyal = 20 Piastres (Qirsh).
- 16th June 1966 - 19th May 1973:
Bahrain Dinar = 1000 Fils (Only in
Abu Dhabi).
- 18th September 1966:
Qatar and Dubai Riyal = 100 Dirhams.
- 19th May 1973:
Dirham = 100 Fils.
