Location of Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia is a sovereign Arab state in Western Asia constituting the bulk of the Arabian Peninsula. The country's command economy is petroleum-based but slowly diversifying; in 2017 58% of budget revenues and 85% of export earnings came from the oil industry. The country plans to reduce oil-based revenues to 42% by 2023. A considerable proportion of Saudi companies are owned by families, including the royal family.
