Our history does state that the very first person whom ALL the tribes living within the Qatari peninsula have recognized as a "leader elect" was Sheikh Jassim bin Mohammed Al Thani....and it does state that that took place on December 18, 1878....before him and before that date every leader either lead his own tribe or his area of land.
