Best Answer

Because it is an accurate description of the composition of the country, they are a unity of Arab speaking Emirates (territories that are ruled by an Emire). They comprise of 7 small, previously independent territories whcuh were each rulled by a tribal leader (an Emire), when they formed a single country they became a "United Arab Emirates"

Suggesting that they simply call themselves "Emirates" would be exactly the same as suggesting that the United States of America change the countrys name to "States"
