Google
celebrates the United Arab Emirates’ National Day with a doodle on its homepage
on the UAE domain.
On this day, 2nd of December 1971,
the United Arab Emirates was formed after receiving its independence formally
from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and eventually leading to the
unification of the seven emirates which together formed the UAE.

The innovative doodle presented by Google depicts a falcon flying
across the sky as it carries banners in the color of the UAE flag which form
the Google logo with one of the banners depicting one of the tombs found on the
island of Umm Al-Nar.
The history of the United Arab Emirates extends to well before the union
was formed 41 years ago. This year our
Google UAE National Day doodle celebrates the civilization of Umm Al Nar which
existed on an island just off the coast of Abu Dhabi from around 2500 to 2000
BC.
Through
this doodle Google aims to celebrate the union of the UAE as well as to raise
awareness of the cultural treasures that exist there.
Doodles are known as the decorative changes
