Quiz the Crown Prince of Bahrain
Economic reformer, champion of education and sports enthusiast, Sheikh Salman Al-Khalifa has been Bahrain's leading political figure since being named Crown Prince in 1999.
The Western-educated 40-year-old is credited with opening up an era of progressive government reforms and introducing a liberal economic strategy to the small island country in the Arabian Gulf.
When not being either Commander-in-chief of the Bahrain Defense Force, chairman of Housing and Urban Development or chair of Council for Youth and Sports, the crown prince is a serious sports enthusiast who spearheaded bringing the Formula One Grand Prix to Bahrain, seeing off stiff competition from other countries in the region.
