O Country - Oman


Oman is the only 'O' country

The A to Z categories are based on the English language and inadvertently might not include all native country names.

Unlike with the previous 14 letters in the alphabet (A through N), O has only one country with the name starting in that letter (English language). The only "O" country is OMAN, a Middle Eastern country of deserts and mountains. Part of the large Arabian Peninsula, Oman borders two major water bodies: the Gulf of Oman off the northern coast and the Arabian Sea to the east. All of the bordering countries - Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen - are west of Oman. Check out my original Oman post!
