All the USA has to do is pull it's military base out of Saudi Arabia and their 'royal family' would be destroyed.

edit: I miss read your post.

Yes the english are who created the 'royal' families, from the tribes.. after they chopped up the land in the region like a piece of meat.
Which are the countries in that region, we know today.

Laurence of Arabia

edit- I'm trying to think of the exact treat name but it slips my mind.
edit- Treaty of Jeddah (1927)?

Yes indeed, after GB voluntarily decided to castrate itself in the wake of WW2, hegemony over the region was given to the USA, who prop up the state. They only exist as vassals of the USA

a Freedom-of-Information-Act by bloomberg in 2016 showed that Saudi Arabia is one of the USA's largest dept holders for 41 years.

But here is the juicy part, if the current royal family, currently bin Salman, are no longer in control. That dept is wiped.

"The basic framework was strikingly simple. The US would buy oil from Saudi Arabia and provide the kingdom military aid and equipment. In return, the Saudis would plough billions of their petrodollar revenue back into Treasuries and finance America’s spending."
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/the-untold-story-behind-saudi-arabia-s-41year-us-debt-secret-a7059041.html

,.. So with Bin Salman playing ball with china, it may invoke the USA to pull it's military out of SA and thus SA would collapse. While this may seem far fetched,.. it would greatly improve the USA economy if this happened.
