The pastoral dessert nomad, which herded camels and sheep across the desert is fading fast, and is being replaced by professionals and technicians that work in the populated cities. Many Arabs find employment with oil companies and other big manufacturing companies, which have bases in the Middle East. With the average life expectancy rates between 70-80 years of age things are on the rise for the people of the Arab nation. The Arab society is both old and new, with changes going in the right direction. They continue to keep family and relationships as a high moral value.
Education is on the rise, with the opportunity there for both sexes.
