Kuwait was an important trade hub in the Persian Gulf before becoming a British protectorate in the 19th century. It gained independence in 1961 and became a major oil producer. The country was invaded by Iraq in 1990 but was liberated in 1991. Today, Kuwait remains an oil-rich nation with a strong economy.
