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 man named Stan represents Turkmenistan, with brothers Afghani and Afghanistan. The story continues with a morning routine involving Iran and Iraq, followed by breakfast with Syria, Cyprus, and Lebanon. The brothers visit a palace representing Palestine and meet Jordan. The narrative explores smaller countries around Saudi Arabia, including Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, and Oman. The story concludes with a recap to reinforce memorization.
