I think the reason why Dubai is not independent is probably:

1, important location, strategic geography

The UAE is a country in the northeast corner of Arabian Peninsula, with Iran on the other side and the Persian Gulf between it, which makes the UAE have high strategic value in the context of globalization.

You know, since humans boarded the ship and gradually explored along the mainland coast, this geographical location, like the United Arab Emirates, is the key to commerce and war. Especially with the advent of the era of navigation, it has become a vital "valve" connecting Europe, Asia and Africa. Therefore, the Eurasian Empire established by human beings must control this place without exception.

So once this place is controlled, whether it is Iran over there, Iraq in the northwest corner, or even Pakistan in the northeast corner. Just like being stuck in the neck, ships in other countries will be restricted by the controller's rules. Therefore, for a country in such a strategic geographical position, how important the gold content of this "valve" is for a superpower. Once the UAE becomes independent, its valves will be overhauled!

2, the valve changes hands, huge loopholes.

Therefore, the emirate of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates will never be independent. This is the key to ensuring the global interests of superpowers. Because a broken United Arab Emirates can not only hold the Persian Gulf more forcefully, but also make the Persian Gulf valve change hands. Until finally, the political and military situation in West Asia has undergone tremendous changes, resulting in a huge loophole in the global strategy of the superpower.

So although Dubai is full of local tyrants, it is full of oil and gold. But it remains intact in the United Arab Emirates, which is the foundation of its existence and prosperity. Otherwise, before the world pattern changes, this rich man's back garden will become the front line of war.
