Description:

The Nile, the longest river on Earth, has been Egypt’s lifeline for thousands of years. 🌊🇪🇬 It provides water, agriculture, and prosperity, making Egypt the second richest country in Africa after Nigeria. But a growing conflict is brewing upstream... 🌍⚠️

Ethiopia has been building massive dams on the Blue Nile—the source of 80% of the Nile’s water. This gives Ethiopia control over the river’s flow, potentially threatening Egypt’s water supply. With 95% of Egypt’s population living along the Nile, this could spark a major geopolitical crisis. Could this water dispute escalate into a conflict? Watch to learn more! 🚨

Transcript:

This is the longest river on Earth, The Nile. And this is the main reason why Egypt is the second richest country in Africa, after Nigeria.
But there is a problem further up river that may put Egypt’s economy in danger. You see, The Nile as we know it, is formed from the Blue Nile and The White Nile. The Blue Nile is the source of 80% of the water of the Nile and what is extremely concerning for Egypt is that it’s Springs are located in Ethiopia.
In the last years, Ethiopia started to create a series of dams on the Blue Nile which means Ethiopia will be able to control the water flow of the Blue Nile and implicitly the water flow which will reach Egypt.
A shrinking of the water levels will hit Egypt’s very hard as more than 95 percents of Egypt population leaves along the Nile. This is the reason why a conflict between these two countries may start in the future.
