Ok, a rehash of my breeding program idea.
This time, the instigator would be Said bin Sultan. He ruled from 1804 to 1856.
He had 34 children (*grins*) and his descendants still rule Oman.
I'd butterfly away the 1840 moving of the capital, but I'd keep the 1856 splitting of the realm.
Why Said and not Kangxi? Simply, because I know some Arabic and I can have fun with the naming conventions...
