History
The Sultans of Alola were tribal leaders in Oman and received the title of Sultan in 1871 although they did not govern Alola until 1947 due to british and portuguese commercial dominance.

After World War 2, In 1947, Alola was established under british control, being conquered in 1948 by Yemeni forces. The yemeni settlement only lasted until 1952, when the omani forces occuped the island. In 1961, Alola became independent, Mohammed Salman (Mohammed IV) was the first independent Sultan.

Since a few years, Alola has taken some steps towards democracy. Parliamentary elections in which women have voted and may also be candidates have occurred and the sultan has promised as much clarity as possible and participation in government.
