Can you identify Qatar on that map, Billybob? Yeah didn't think so. And clearly that pale yellow on the USA is an average, post the map that breaks it down for the Bum**** states and your trailer park.
As for the UAE, how can it be more than 50% when 85% of the population is expat, and the vast majority of those arrived in the last 25 years? So good research retard.

I want the google earth plug-in that allows me to zoom into my street to find out who's keeping it in the family.

Can you find Ohio on that map tiny man. Idaho? Most of the states in the USA are significantly larger than Qatar so it shouldn't be hard. Hell, we've got cities larger. Go ahead, we'll wait.
Here, maybe this will help.

Ah OK it's size that determines your geographical knowledge. Cool. Feel free to point our Kazakhstan or Algeria, both in top 10 by land area. Then try Nigeria and Bangladesh, both in the top 10 by population.And all considerably larger by any measure you like than Ohio, Idaho, or any other Bum**** state you want to choose.
I'll wait.

2017, as part of the Qatar diplomatic crisis, the UAE cut diplomatic relations with Qatar.

You're not qualified to comment on the topic of thinking. It requires a certain level of comprehension that sadly eludes you. Stick to Emojis.

We have investigated the genome-wide diversity of the Emirati population and found that both ancient and more recent demographic events have contributed to the genetic formation and structure of the population. Our admixture tests suggest that the population retains an autochthonous Middle Eastern ancestry supplemented with African and South Asian ancestries. The Emirati population captures admixture events that have occurred thousands of years ago, possibly related to movement of people in the Middle East after major cultural transitions such as the invention of agriculture or more recent movements related to climate change and desertification of the region in the past 6,000 years ago (Petraglia et al. 2020; Almarri et al. 2021). However, we found in our data set individuals who were genetically identical to present-day Africans or Central/South Asians, suggesting gene flow into the Emirates is still an ongoing process. Yet, the spread of these ancestries across the tribes of the Emirate appears to have been restrained by a tradition of endogamy and consanguinity. We show that the specific tribal culture in the Emirates has created genetic structure in the population and that inter-Emirati genetic differences broadly reflect the geographical locations of the individual Emirati populations (fig. 4c) but in addition, family and tribe affiliation within the Emirate also contributed to genetic structure. The influence of the endogamous culture within the separate Emirates is probably best illustrated by the spread of specific uniparental lineages within some tribes but not others in the same Emirates—a pattern also seen elsewhere in endogamous tribes of the Middle East such as in Yemen (Raaum et al. 2013). Consanguinity has also resulted in high levels of homozygosity in individuals’ genomes characterized by long ROH segments, which could have consequence on health and disease (Ceballos, Joshi, et al. 2018). On the other hand, consanguinity has probably enriched rare functional variants in this population and thus it presents an opportunity to study the genetic architecture of complex human traits in the future (Xue et al. 2017).
Our study represents the first fine-scale genetic analysis of the Emirati population building on broader population structures revealed by other studies of the Arabian Peninsula. We uncover a unique and distinct genomic architecture and provide new insights into the ancestry of these populations and the social dynamics influencing their diversity. Complex disease risk alleles, rare and undetectable in other populations, may be amplified by cultural factors to discoverable levels, providing novel insights into disease mechanisms applicable to all populations. For Emirati populations, this will have important implications for future efforts to understand genetic risk and facilitating development of population-specific therapeutic interventions (Zayed 2016) including for current health challenges such as metabolic syndromes traits (Radwan et al. 2018) as well as improving understanding of drug responses. Such efforts reduce the potential for bias in representation of Emirati and other understudied populations worldwide that can exacerbate disease and generate healthcare disparities (Wojcik et al. 2019), and promote genomics-driven precision medicine approaches through a deeper understanding of population-specific genetic variation.
