In The Modern History of Qatar, watch Qatar’s journey into the modern era. Witness the nation’s transformation driven by oil, its emergence onto the global stage, and its evolving national identity. The gallery features unique installations, including the dazzling Pearl Carpet of Baroda and multimedia storytelling that brings this narrative to life.
