Duizend en één Nacht, or "One Thousand and One Nights", is a collection of Middle Eastern folk tales and stories. It follows the frame story of Scheherazade, a young woman who marries King Shahryar to save her people from his murderous wrath. To survive, she begins telling the king stories each night, leaving them unfinished to keep him intrigued and alive. The stories within the frame narrative are diverse, ranging from romantic adventures to fantastical journeys, moral tales, and humorous anecdotes. They offer a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Middle East, reflecting the values, beliefs, and societal norms of the time.
