Summary

The Al Khalifa family governed Bahrain as feudal estates, heavily taxing the local population, particularly the Shia community. British influence grew through strategic negotiations, culminating in the submission of the population to British control in 1861. Shaikh Isa bin Ali Al Khalifa was initially under house arrest but later released.
