Original Note:
This body of water, historically and popularly known as the Persian Gulf, is also at times contentiously referred to by (most often by certain Arab nations as the Arabian Gulf). This is not accepted globally. Maps naming the area the ‘Persian Gulf’ date from centuries ago. https://www.loc.gov/resource/gdcwdl.wdl_12889/?r=-0.006,-0.447,1.111,1.626,0 https://www.eavartravel.com/blog/2022/10/24/130564/persian-gulf/
