Imagine filthy rich Nepo babies nation over several generations and you get Mohammed bin Salman. Before MBS, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz had Economic Cities Program build something like five failed cities and a financial district that also failed.

Well they started the project quite boldly, stuck to their detailed plan, accomplished milestone after milestone, now they're done.

It is a glorious monument to unleashed ambition, dogged determination, and focused commitment to follow through against all odds no matter what.

In the middle of the stinkin' desert no less, it's an amazing transformation when you look at it, they really all came together and made something out of nothing.

Not just a little something, but something more extravagant than most people could imagine.
