Saudi Arabia: Muslim warriors of Ibn Saud on camel back in Nejd, on their way to recapture Riyadh, c. 1910. King Abdul-Aziz of Saudi Arabia (1876 - 9 November 1953) was the first monarch of Saudi Arabia, the third Saudi State. He was usually called Ibn Saud in English-speaking countries. Beginning with the reconquest of his family's ancestral home city of Riyadh in 1902, he consolidated his control over the Najd in 1922, then conquered the Hijaz in 1925. Having conquered almost all of central Arabia, he united his dominions into the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 1932.
