"Our country is celebrating around 300 years and this reflects nations' governance, reflects equity, to have the prosperity of their people. To bring modernization and at the same time to regain the culture of the society. It's not by chance to be 300 years old unless the state is caring about its neighbours, caring about its people, seeking peace all over the world", Husseini added.

The history of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s “Foundation Day” dates back to three centuries ago when the first Saudi state was established in 1727 during the leadership of Imam Muhammad bin Saud.
