Resource:Oil & Water in the Middle East
Provider:National Geographic
Summary:Explore the roles of oil and water in the Middle East with mapping, satellite imagery, and research
Description:"In this lesson, students explore the roles of oil and water in the Middle East, especially in Iraq. Students will use maps to look at the distribution of oil in the Middle East and discuss what it means for the different countries in the region. They will also examine how water has influenced the region historically (in the "fertile crescent" region between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers) and politically (for example, how Iraq's access to water is limited to one small part of its border). Finally, they will study specific aspects of Iraq's struggles with water, using satellite imagery to understand and illustrate the problem."
