Arabs

The Arabs are a semitic people from the Middle East. The majority of Arabs especially those in the region practise Islam. Arab countries include Egypt.

Arabs in Southern Victory
In this timeline where the United States joined the Central Powers with Germany, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire during the Great War in 1914 while the Confederate States, Britain, France, Russia and Japan formed the Entente, the Arabs remain subjects of the Ottoman Empire due to a Central Powers victory in 1917. It is likely that some of the population resisted their Turkish masters.

Arabs in World War
During World War II, the Race invaded and conquered the Middle East along with Africa, Australia, South America and much of Asia. The Race set up its capital in Cairo, Egypt.

The entire Islamic world was among the parts of Tosev 3 conquered by the Race. Due to the differences in culture and religion between the Arabs and the Race, conflict arose especially since Arabs, as with many other Tosevians, tended to be militantly opposed to the Race's presence on Earth. When Atvar attempted to impose the cult of emperor-worship on his Tosevite subjects, much of the Middle East rebelled under the leadership of [Ayatollah Khomeini]]. However, the rebellion was crushed and the Ayatollah was banished to Argentina.

Arabs in In the Presence of Mine Enemies
Following the Axis victory in World War II, the Greater German Reich and Italy initiated a large scale genocide of Arabs in the Middle East since Arabs were considered by the Nazis as "semitic as the Jews".

The Reich is mentioned as having browbeaten the Italians into helping them presumbaly once Nazi ideologues decided that that was called for - as already in our history they enacted anti-Jewish race laws in 1938, which were not part of Mussolini's original Fascist program.

The remaining handful of Arabs were enslaved by the Reich as they had done earlier to the Slavs and probably the native Africans. The Middle East was divided between the Reich and Italy.

Arabs were used along Russian, Ukrainian, Polish and Serb slave laborers by German industry for "dirty" or dangerous work. In one chilling passage, an industrial accident in the Ruhr is reported on TV as having caused the deaths of "Twelve Aryans and an unknown number of Untermench".
