A base was put in Saudi Arabia because they believed that Russia was going to invade them, they asked for the US to come put a base there in hopes that Russia would recognize that they were protected by the United States.

When did Germany imperialize Saudi Arabia?

Aside from the fact that "imperialize" is not a word, Germany never conquered or ruled over Saudi Arabia at any point in history. The historical conflict between Germans and Arabians during World War I was from Arabians revolting against the Ottoman Empire for independence and, as an ally of the Ottoman Empire, the German Army tried half-heartedly to put down the Arabian uprisings.


Where there any conflicts in Saudi Arabia?

There is no war within the borders of Saudi Arabia, however, as of October 2015, (1) the Saudi government is fighting wars abroad and (2) the residents of Saudi Arabia are experiencing extensive repression from the Saudi government, which could be termed as a conflict.1) Saudi Arabian WarsThe Saudi government is currently involved in two main conflicts and the resolution of other ancillary conflicts.Yemeni Civil War: The conflict over which the Saudis express the greatest amount of anxiety and are pouring the most effort into resolving is the Yemeni Civil War. Saudi Arabia is supporting the anti-Houthi groups in Yemen (the South Yemen government and the Islamic-State-aligned Ansar al-Shari'a of Yemen) by carpet-bombing most of Houthi controlled Yemen in sporadic bursts. As of yet, the Saudis have not put forces on the ground in Yemen, but if the Houthis make further advances towards controlling Yemen, such an invasion would not be out of the question. Saudi Arabia knows that a Houthi-controlled government would quickly become an Iranian proxy-state and Saudi Arabia does not want such a state on its southern border. (Read more in the Related Questions below)War Against Islamic State: This is a conflict that Saudi Arabia has joined out of its required commitment to its US allies and out of fear that the Islamists that it has financed abroad may come back to wage war in Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia has added a few of its aircraft to the US-led bombing raids against Islamic State and has provided financial support to some of the rebel groups fighting both Islamic State and the Assad Regime in Syria, like Jubhat an-Nusra (often called the "Al-Nusra Front" in English). Again, the Saudi Air Force is the only part of the Saudi Armed Forces involved in the conflict. It is highly unlikely that Saudi Arabia would step up engagement in the War Against Islamic State because Saudi Arabia is very similar, ideologically, to the Islamic State in terms of its treatment of minorities and incorporation of Sunni Islamic Law into the governing apparatus in the country. (Read more in the Related Questions below)Bahraini Arab Spring Revolt: The Kingdom of Bahrain requested troops from other Arab countries in order to quell the protests demanding a transition to democracy, or at the very least, equal rights for the Shiite majority. The UAE put forward 500 police officers and the Saudis put forward 1,500 soldiers and both of them marched into Bahrain over the King Fahd Causeway and have remained to ensure that the authoritarian monarchy will not be toppled.2) Internal Repression in Saudi ArabiaThere are a number of serious forms of repression for women. Saudi women are not allowed to drive, determine their marital status, choose to not wear the hijab, owning or using weapons, vote independently, go out independently, and are subject to laws that protect rapists over rape victims. Religious minorities have their houses of worship and religious paraphernalia routinely destroyed and some minorities like Jews and Atheists are actively banned.
