Are any of the Arab Royal families related?

One son of the King of Bahrain is married to a daughter of a late Saudi king.
Another Son is married to a daughter of Mohammad Bin Rashid of Dubai, according to what I remember.
They tend to marry from each other.
However it must be said, that they are generally leaders of police states..

I am sure they have.. I know the Sudeiri Seven all had a Syrian mother. The wives have a good bit of influence... its called Petticoat Politics.
Jordanian and Moroccan royal families are descendants of prophet Muhammad.
According of what i remember the Yemen's Royal family was also descendants of Muhammad. the leader of Yemen was called the imam.
The same royal family of Jordan ruled Hijaz (Saudi Arabia), Iraq , and Syria, some time before.
I don't know if Lebanon was an independent state before or not.

What happened to Yemen and Morocco's Royal families?

Lebanon had kings back when it was Phoenicia, not since.
The King of Jordan was from Hijaz but never ruled Iraq or Syria before he fled Mecca in the 1920s.
I meant that the current Jordanian King is a grandson of Sherif Hussein ibn Ali al-Hashimi, the King of the Hejaz from 1916 to 1924. And the sons of Sherif Hussein ruled Iraq and Syria.
The Moroccan royal family is still in power. While in Yemen, the imam rule was ended..
I don't know if it was by a real revolution or some of his enemies have initiated the movement that removed him from power.
I think that I heard many times that Egypt has played a role in ending his rule. Some western countries may have also been involve.
