The study is divided into introduction, conclusions and recommendations and ve chapters.iapter One presents the natural geographic components of the region which is 1bject of the study. These components include position, area, shape, roof, climate r natural resources, e.g. natural plant, water and minerals resources which have rous impacts on the state. hapter Two discusses the human components, e.g. public and economic and onomic. These are numerous such as population, the geographic distribution and tensity, the quality structure , age , the social and economical indicators. The cimomical components present the most important variables. This chapter also s ~ies the economical sectors of the state which include agriculture, hunting , iperals, transforming industrials, services, tourism, trading, communication and nsformation and the contribution of each sector in the local aggregate. apter Three is concerned with studying the political structure of the state and its c mponents. The contents of this chapter shows the development in the political s stem, the regime - structure and decision - making centers. J!apter Four analyzes the foreign policy of Y cm en : its neighbouring countries. It a •~ deals with the relations of Yemen with the Arab homeland, and with the great p ier like the united states, the European Union, Japan and with the international nizations.apter Five foreseers the geo - political future of Yemen through the researcher's scriptive and through his evaluation of the reign which is subject of the study.< : main conclusions that the study has arrived at are : Yemen has an important position which ts characterized by its geo - political effects on the reign.2. The large area of Yemen brigs a variety m the natural phenomena, e.g. the hypgraphic nature and clinate which help in creating various climatic and plant environments that provide economical specification among the different districtsin Yemen (the products of the orbit areas in planes, the products of the moderate areas in the high lands). This brings about a self - sufficient rate reaches at (%55 - 31) of food. Moreover, the area of Yemen gives it the ability to defend itselfin depth. 3. Yemen has (5) neighboring countries, 3 of which are marines and the other two are land countries : despite that Yemen has border problems with most of these countries, yet Yemen was able overcome these problems through makinga!,'feements to solve them.4. Although soil represents an important element of the elements of power in state, Yemen sulfurs from a reduction in the area of agriculture soils which include about 3% of the entire area of the country this is a small area and it represents oneof the geo - political weaknesses of the state.5. Yemen suffers from a clear reduction of water. The roof waters are very few and the rain waters arc inadequate in most areas.6. The study explores that Y cm en has about ( 4) billions drums of oil reserviour in 2000. This forms 0.4 , 0.5 of the world reservoir and opec reservoir in the same year. Yemen also has a large amount of natural gas, about (479)billions/m3 Thisforms a rate of(0.30, 0.69) of the world reservoir and opec reservoir respectively in the same year.7. The population intensity varied among the different districts in Yemen. It is very high in the capital, Ta'z and Al - Hudidya where it reaches about (6703, 204 , 145,7) pcrson/km2 respectively in 2000. On the contrary, the population intensity records the lowest rate in Al - Muhra' where it reaches (1) person I km2. This has a negative influence on the political and economical situation in Yemen. he study finds that there is a reduction in the social indicators for the public such as health. This reduction is due to the rate of spending on this sector which records about (1 and 2) in the aggregate of the local production.emen still depends in its foreign exports on a sole resource which is oil. The oil exports forms about %69.85 of the total exports in 2000.1 • The study shows that the strategic industrial sector occupies the first rank among the other economical sectors in the total aggregate where it fonns about (% 38.8). this sector includes about (0.49) only of the total employee in Yemen,whereas the agriculture sector contribute in about %54 of the employee in 2000. I. In studying the decision - making constitutions, it appears that the position of the president of the republic has effectively and vitathy affected the policy if the state. The other constitutions such as the representative council , the ministry council , the foreign ministry and the Judicial power have taken a participant rote in the political system. I •Yemen's economical relations with the other Arabian countries, i - e. non - gulf countries , are still wench. The economical indicators indicate that the value of the Yemenian exports to these countries reached about (51652000) dollars in 2000; while the Ycmen
