	History of the Gulf
		It first became apparent that the Qawasim had other interests besides trade when the Qasimi shaykh of Ras al Khaymah assisted the imam of Oman,Sultan bin Saif II, in seizing Bahrain in 1720.
		Because the East India Company's headquarters were at Bandar Abbas on the mainland behind Qeshm, the British were outraged at the loss of revenue caused by ships berthing at the closer port of Basidu.
		The British by that time were so closely involved in Omani affairs that the British viceroy in India, Lord Canning, adjudicated between the sultan's quarreling sons after the sultan's death in 1856.
