It is also a day to experience feelings of joy, pride, and honor, sensing the importance of that pivotal date when the founder, King Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman Al Saud \u2013 may God have mercy on him \u2013 announced the unification of the country under the name of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, under one banner in 1351 AH. People gathered after division and united after discord in a historic unity that can only be achieved by heroes. He pointed out that he, along with a select group of the nation\u2019s sons, was able to present an epic of construction and development, which culminated in the establishment of a great united state, where a noble people live under the shade of one banner, becoming a state of dignity and pride, and a model of success and progress. Today, it stands tall among the world\u2019s leading nations. <\/p>

He added: It is difficult to list all that has been achieved and accomplished on the land of this generous nation throughout those decades. However, among the most prominent blessings that God has bestowed upon our country are security, justice, prosperity, and stability, the foundations of which were laid by King Abdulaziz - may God have mercy on him - and his successors, the Kings (Saud, Faisal, Khalid, Fahd, and Abdullah) - may God have mercy on them all - continued in his footsteps, leading up to our glorious era, the era of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz - may God protect him. He has guided the country with a fragrant legacy, supported by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz, Chairman of the Council of Ministers. They have followed in the footsteps of the founder in his wisdom, acumen, and administration, with all strength and success, so that our Kingdom continues its civilizational renaissance in various fields, both locally and globally. This has resulted in a global impact and a high quality of life. The most eloquent witness to this are those inspiring projects that cover the needs of generations with unique diversity in heritage, economy, tourism, sports, space, innovation, and creativity, as well as modern industries. All of these were dreams yesterday, and today they have become a reality witnessing the achievements. <\/p>
