The work will also be in theory-consuming design, meaning the empire will be interpreted based on three different theories. These three theories’ will explain why Yemen is a weak state. The focus of the work is to study if Yemen is a functioning state and find crucial explanations for its design as we see today. The result of this study is that Yemen is a week state but not a falling one.
