Bani Yas
Bani Yas (from Arabic: بَنُو ياس ) is a tribal confederation of central Arabian origin in the United Arab Emirates. It had a coalition with many other tribes in the region.[1] The tribal coalition which consists of tribes from Dubai to Khawr al Udayd southeast of Qatar, was called the Bani Yas Coalition.[2] The tribe has been led by their rulers, the Al Nahyan, who had their headquarters in Al Dhafra and now in Abu Dhabi (city).[2][3]
The ruling family of the United Arab Emirates and Abu Dhabi, Al Nahyan, which is a branch of Al Falahi, belongs to and rules this tribe, as do the emirs of Dubai, Al Maktoum,[4][5] which is a branch of Al Falasi.
Bani Yas had close relations with the Dhawahir tribe, which was traditionally at odds with Na’im and Bani Ka’ab in Buraimi Oasis.[6]
