Interesting fact

The Sultanate was known for its military prowess, architectural achievements, and cultural contributions, including the development of a distinctive style of Islamic art and architecture. The Dirham coin , which features the name of the Sultan al-Sa'id Baraka Qan, is a tangible reminder of the Sultanate's rich history and cultural heritage.
