What is main export and import Bahrain?
We have many exports, but our main exports are oil, aluminum, and dates. There are palm trees everywhere, but other exports are very basic things such as eggs, flour, clothes, shoes, and even Pepsi.
What are the working days in Bahrain?
In Saudi Arabia (and many other Muslim counties), Friday has traditionally been the only day off for private sector workers, who work Saturday to Thursday. (Remember we had a 6 day work week in the US until WWIIl.)
Nowadays, government (and some private sector) workers in Saudi Arabia (and its neighbors Oman and Yemen) are off on Thursday, so the weekend per se is Thurs/Fri.
Note that most of the rest of the Muslim world (and Israel) have a two-day weekend on Friday and Saturday. Adding Saturday as the second weekend day allows business on the Muslim world to align with the West for four out of five days.

Is Bahrain part of Saudi Arabia?
No.
There are several reasons why: Firstly Dubai does not have a King, but an Emir. Secondly, Dubai is part of the United Arab Emirates and therefore has nothing to do with Saudi Arabia. Thirdly, the Saudi Royal Family pertains exclusively to Saudi Arabia (that's why the country is named after them).
These countries are both called the GULF STATES and the ARAB EMIRATES.

What is the country Bahrain known for?
Mr B has definately been there. Bahrain was the banking and corporate center of the Gulf Region, but United Arab Emirates has taken over that role. The ruling family is Sunni, but a lot of the people in the villages are Shia (like Iran). There is a lot of internal riots. There is a fairly large expat community of Filipino, British, Sri Lankans, Pakistanis, and Americans (almost all military. It is the base for the fleet).
Since they built the causeway over from Saudi Arabia a lot of Saudi men come over for the weekend to drink. Alchohol is never available in Saudi. In Bahrain a bar must be attached to a hotel, or you can drink in a restaurant. There is no drinking during Ramadan.
It is a very different culture than United Arab Emirates. Nearly everyone in the UAE has been to Europe or America.

What is the national dress of Bahrain?
The national costume differs between men and women.
The men's costume usually consists of four parts: a simple shirt called baju Melayu, which simply translates to 'Malay shirt' (often made of silk, or sometimes cotton or polyester) ; a pair of trousers made of the same material and usually matching colour; a sort of embroidered kilt called a sinjang; and a black or dark-coloured type of fez hat called a songkok.
Women generally wear what is called baju kurung which means 'enclosed dress'. It consists of a head scarf (called a tudung) and a dress (which can come in one or two parts), and together cover the entire body save for the face, hands and feet. The dress and scarf are often brightly coloured and have varied patterns.
The national costume is worn at various functions and official events, as well as many government workplaces.

What is the common reason behind Brunei Bahrain and Kuwait having a high income per head?
All three of these countries; Brunei, Bahrain, and Kuwait; are countries that both (1) export large quantities of petroleum and (2) have a relatively small population. As a result, the wealth that comes in from oil exports is divided among very few people, leading to a high income per capita / high income per head.
