How did Saudi Arabia gain it independence?

Saudi Arabia has never been "occupied" or "dependent", so the question is inapt. Saudi Arabia was created as a result of the Nejd-Hejaz War in 1924-1925 that resulted in the conquest of Hejaz by Nejd. The Nejdi leaders, the Saud family, declared the united polity to be the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.


What is the historical background for Saudi Arabia?

Saudi Arabia was never formally colonized or turned into a protectorate, however, the Sultanate of Oman, the United Arab Emirates, Yemen, Qatar, and Kuwait (various Arabian states) were all British Protectorates. (This is different from a colony but does underlie a foreign authority and a subservient national group.) At this point, Saudi Arabia was composed of two regions Nejd (which was non-governed in this period) and Hejaz which constituted part of the Ottoman Empire. The Treaty of Versailles carved Hejaz out of the Ottoman Empire in 191 and was then conquered by Nejd in 1922. As Nejd was ruled by the Saudi royal family, they called the new Nejd-Hejaz union as Saudi Arabia.


When did Islam become the official religion in Saudi Arabia?
