What will happen to the Arab nations?
Given that oil is the main source of revenue for the oil rich Arab nations, what will happen to those countries once the global supply of oil is depleted? Is there any evidence at all to suggest that these countries will be broke once they have depleted their supply of fossil fuel? Or is there evidence to suggest that these countries have the ability to develop an alternative source of revenue, such as tourism (as in the case of Dubai) and manufacturing/exports as in the case of Korea, China and Japan?

If oil starts running out in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, etc...those countries and its Islamist monarchical governments would end up being bankrupt and its people may have to rise up against their monarchs for freedom and bread. Tourism would be depleted and Dubai would end up becoming a ghost town. There could be a time if that happens, as the economy of those Gulf states depended on oil only.

That become tried and failed, which does no longer advise it may't prevail contained in the destiny. i imagine fangtaiyang meant to assert The United Arab Republic which become briefly composed of Egypt and Syria. (The United Arab Emirates nevertheless exists and is a really small u . s . a .). cohesion is reliable at the same time as those in contact can stay peacefully mutually. per chance some day.
