Maktoums – Trillionaire Family That Built Dubai | 2025 Documentary
The world believes Dubai was built on oil, but the truth is far more dangerous.
From its shadowed origins as a gold-smuggling hub to its rise as the ultimate sanctuary for global oligarchs, this is the untold financial history of the Al Maktoum dynasty. Discover how a desperate desert tribe engineered a trillion-dollar loophole, leveraging massive debt and geopolitical neutrality to transform a dying pearl village into the “City of Gold”βand the most expensive gamble in human history.
