Oman - a country rarely spoken about. What's happening there?

[u/Necessary_Wing799]

Oman is located in a area we heat about a lot for an array of reasons - there are many famous and newsworthy spots close by from dubai to Doha to Iran and Yemen...... what goes on in Oman? Let us know how life is here and any relevant info on its current state....

[u/AssumptionExtra9041]

Oman is stable, is relatively rich. It is not involved as much in international politics as its neighbors and it also does not prominently commit human right violations.

So, to keep it short: (almost) everything going on in the neighboring countries is also happening in Oman but to a much shallower degree.

it also does not prominently commit human right violations

I just love how you phrased this. Like, "They're definitely violating human rights but they do it quietly, without parades, and they keep their fanfare to acknowledged holidays.
