Wouldn’t Iraq be a Gulf state? Like the others marked, it’s also an Arab state bordering the Persian Gulf.
If I’m reading it correctly:
* Al Maghreb = west of Egypt (western Arab world)
* Al Mashriq = east of Libya (eastern Arab world)
* Al Sham = Levant
* Yemen = Yemen

It’s generally correct but I think we shouldn’t stop at modern national borders. For example Siwa in the far west of Egypt has a maghrebi cultural background etc. But these are just details overall I agree

Iraq is called Bilad Al Rafidayn (Mesopotamia)

so if Yemen means south, then south Yemen would mean South South?

Surprised no one said how incorrect this is. Mashriq is anything east of Libya. Maghreb is right. Levant (Al sham) includes Israel geographically but not culturally. Iraq should have gulf state hatching too.
