The 2011 uprising in Bahrain was part of the overall Arab Spring and was an attempt by Bahrain's disenfranchised Shiite majority to force the Sunni monarchy to give them equal employment and housing rights. The Bahraini King requested assistance from the Saudi Kings and the two countries' armies forcibly crushed the protests. Shiite Bahrainis remain in a second-class status in Bahrain.
