Arab League
The Arab League is a regional organization of 22 Arab countries in the Middle East and North Africa, established in 1945 to promote political, economic, cultural, and social cooperation. Recent trends highlight its role in mediating conflicts, particularly in Syria and Yemen, while also addressing challenges like regional security and economic integration. Driving factors include shared cultural and historical ties, as well as responses to geopolitical shifts such as rivalry between Gulf countries and external powers’ influence. However, internal divisions and competing national interests often limit the League's effectiveness in unified decision-making and implementation of policies.
