During the Persian siege of Basra in 1775–79, Iraqi merchants took refuge in Kuwait and were partly instrumental in the expansion of Kuwait's boat-building and trading activities.[23] As a result, Kuwait's maritime commerce boomed.[23] Between the years 1775 and 1779, the Indian trade routes with Baghdad, Aleppo, Smyrna and Constantinople were diverted to Kuwait.[22][24] The East India Company was diverted to Kuwait in 1792.[25] The East India Company secured the sea routes between Kuwait, India and the east coasts of Africa.[25] After the Persians withdrew from Basra in 1779, Kuwait continued to attract trade away from Basra.Kuwait was the center of boat building in the Persian Gulf region.[27][28] During the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, vessels made in Kuwait carried the bulk of trade between the ports of India, East Africa and the Red Sea.[29][30][31] Kuwaiti ship vessels were renowned throughout the Indian Ocean.[32] Regional geopolitical turbulence helped foster economic prosperity in Kuwait in the second half of the 18th century.[33] Kuwait became prosperous due to Basra's instability in the late 18th century.[34] In the late 18th century, Kuwait partly functioned as a haven for Basra's merchants fleeing Ottoman government persecution.[35] According to Palgrave, Kuwaitis developed a reputation as the best sailors in the Persian Gulf.
