The Arabs are the semitic peoples who originally lived in the Arabian Pennisula (i.e., modern day Saudi Arabia, Yemen, etc.). Today, large groups of them also live in northern Africa, as far west as Morocco. They all speak the Arabic language and share a number of cultural commonalities. Most Arabs are Moslem , the rest (only three or four percent) are Christian.
