In the dying days of 2014, as 90-year-old King Abdullah lay in a Riyadh hospital, few could have predicted the meteoric rise of Mohammed bin Salman. The young prince, not yet thirty, was virtually unknown outside Saudi Arabia. Unlike his prestigious Western-educated half-brothers, Mohammed had studied law domestically at King Saud University. While other princes cultivated American connections, he remained in Saudi Arabia, quietly observing his father Salman's governance through the traditional majlis system where citizens directly petitioned their leaders. His financial awakening came at fifteen when he discovered his powerful father had accumulated relatively little wealth by royal standards. This revelation sparked Mohammed's determination to become the family businessman, boldly declaring during a Kuwait trip his intention to surpass the famous Prince Alwaleed bin Talal's wealth within two years. When King Abdullah died in January 2015, everything changed. Within months, Mohammed had consolidated unprecedented control over Saudi Arabia's economy, military, and oil resources-setting the stage for the most dramatic shake-up in Saudi governance since 1932.
