Hejaz (also Hijaz, Hedjaz; Arabic: الحجاز al-Ḥiǧāz) is a region in the northwest of present-day Saudi Arabia.
Evidence has been found the Hejaz (or parts of it) was part of the Roman province of Arabia [1].
In 1924, however, ibn Ali's authority was usurped by ibn Saud of the neighboring nation of Nejd and became known as the Kingdom of Hijaz and Nejd and later the Saudi Arabian state.
