The United Arab Emirates is not an island but a federation of seven emirates, with Dubai and Abu Dhabi offering the largest range of hospitality, retail, aviation, tourism and service-sector jobs. The country has a modern, international lifestyle, excellent shopping, beaches, restaurants and public transport, while its culture is shaped by Islamic traditions, family values and diverse expatriate communities. English is widely used in hotels and business, although Arabic is the official language.
