Write an essay of about response to one the following:1: To what extent were the British treaties with Qatar of 1868 and 1916, including its extension in the 1930s, of benefit to Qatar?2: To what extent was Ottoman presence a blessing for Qatar’s development as a sovereign polity (e.g. sheikhdom).3: To what extent was oil politics a new catalyst of problems and a threat to Qatar’s sovereignty?in order to do well in this essay, you need to (and this is also the grading criteria): Have a thesis, or in other words, take a position, which you make clear in the first paragraph (e.g. Ottoman presence was a huge problem to Qatar’s freedom and independence) Support your thesis with evidence (e.g. Sheikh Jassim’s conflicts with the Ottomans and the Battle of Wajba). Your narrative needs to explain this evidence and how it supports your argument Analyze the counter-argument (e.g. how the Ottomans also helped Qatar’s sovereignty). You need to explain the evidence for the counter-argument (e.g. give one example of how the Ottomans helped Qatar’s sovereignty) A conclusion that briefly summarizes your position and talks about the larger importance of the topic (e.g. what may have been if the Ottomans never came to Qatar.) Citation rules: you do not have to cite unless you quote directly from readings, PPs, or lectures. You should occasionally quote directly, since this strengthens your argument! When you quote, be sure that you have selected something substantial and important. You do not need to do this often. Use either footnotes of APA (or variants thereof, e.g. MLA) citation style, whichever is most familiar to you.
