Arabs
 * //Defenition//** :"Arab" is defined independently of religious identity, and pre-dates the rise of Islam, with historically attested Arab Christian kingdoms and Arab Jews. The earliest documented use of the word "Arab" as defining a group of people dates from the 9th century BCE.[16] Islamized but non-Arabized peoples, and therefore the majority of the world's Muslims, do not form part of the Arab World but comprise what is the geographically larger and more diverse Muslim World."

The political idea of the the Arabs is that all that are named Arab are in the Arab League.The league is based upon the a set of factors which is they speak Arabic, they live in an Arabic speaking country, and they believe in what the Arabic religion tells them to do with political issue. Although some groups may qualify for some of these tersm they can not be considered in the Arabic League. Even before the creation of the League in 1943 the Arabs had other forms of goverment called Linguistic, and Genealogical, which were Arabs who believed in their ancestors for answers about the future.

//**__Origin:__**// The Arabs were believed to have come from the Island of the Arabs which is somewhere between the Red Sea and The Persain Gulf. After coming from the Island they landed in Mesopitamia and Levant. There they remained as a dominant religion and political force, but later were taken over by the Persain Empire and lost the control of the east.

//**__Religion:__**// The religion of the Arab people is either Islam or for the Christain is Greek Orthodox. The Arab nation is one of the most religous groups throughout the world. They use their religion to help them with political, economic, and social ideas from theit ancestors. Although there are many seperations between the Islamic group and the Catholic group they find answers from their religions. One example of when this failed the Arab people was the Lebanese Civil War when many small religous groups fought against each other for land and political power.

The population of the Arab world totals to 300 million people because of the very general defenition of what is means to be an Arab. Arabs live all over the world and are one of the fastest growing religion, and population in the world.
