Weekly World Geography Update

For the week of 3/30-4/5

This week in geography class we learned about the water problems in the middle east and then the ethnic situations in Iraq. The water in the middle east is very scarce and will be more important than oil and is predicted to be the next starter of wars in the 21st century. When we learned about the ethnic situation in Iraq we were chosen to be one of the three ethnic groups in Iraq, my group was the Sunnis, which are one of the minority groups and we wanted to stay in a unified Iraq, and everyone even the other Sunni group wanted to separate from the republic of Iraq. I learned that even though your part of the same group you can have different ideas.
