The second stamp is titled “Spirit of the Union \u2014 1971,” and it commemorates the founding fathers' foundation of the UAE. The third stamp is titled “Year of the 50th \u2014 2021,” while the fourth is titled “Projects of the 50th 2071,” which represents the UAE's futuristic vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
