The video tutorial uses a mnemonic story to help memorize countries in the Middle East. It begins with three Turkish sisters representing Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan. Across the Caspian Sea, a Turkman named Stan lives with his brothers, Afghanistan and Pakistan. The brothers' morning routine involves opening their eyes (Iran and Iraq) and having breakfast with cereal (Syria), syrup (Cypress), and lemon (Lebanon). They visit the palace (Palestine) and meet their friend Jordan, who is on the edge (Israel and Egypt). The story also covers smaller countries around Saudi Arabia, including Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, Oman, and Yemen. The video concludes with a recap of the mnemonic story.
