"Bahrain is a constitutional hereditary monarchy led by
His Highness King Hamad Bin Isa Al-Khalifa. The Kingdom
places great value on harmonizing the conveniences of
modern life and the strength of traditional values.
Historically, Bahrain was one of the first territories
outside mainland Arabia to peacefully adopt Islam. While
Islam is the religion of some 80% of Bahrain’s 650,000
inhabitants, there is considerable presence of other
faiths and religious freedoms are respected. Christian
churches, for instance, are found throughout the
country, serving the needs of the large expatriate
community."
