Building Borders
The idea of building walls to protect one’s country is becoming a trend. Saudi Arabia undertook a project to create a security fence on the border with Iraq in order to stave off ISIS members. When unrest in neighboring Yemen flared up, the Saudis started constructing a security wall there too.
Tower Of Babel
Saudi Arabia’s “Kingdom Tower/Jeddah Tower” is planned to become the tallest building in the world, and construction is supposed to come to a conclusion in 2020. Okay, so it’s not really the “tower of Babel”, but it will reach higher in the sky than any building ever has before, crossing the 1-kilometer mark.
