Saudi Arabia has a lot of oil, and oil gives you a lot of power. Until their oil runs out (I.e. a very long time), they will still have that power. They and their neighbors are predicted to be the last few who will have fossil fuels once the world starts running out of them, which means they will likely have more power at that time.

It sucks that the largest and most powerful country in that region is run by people with that much authority.

Actually, they basically have about 5-6 more years before it runs out (unless they start fracking)

Well, then. They will start fracking.
