Scenarios about 'global famine'
Global famine refers to widespread, catastrophic food shortages affecting multiple regions or continents simultaneously, causing mass starvation and societal breakdown. Historical examples include the Great Famine of 1315-1317 in Europe and the famines triggered by El Niño events, while modern global famines could be precipitated by climate change, nuclear winter, or agricultural disease. In alternate history scenarios, global famines serve as critical turning points that can collapse civilizations, trigger mass migrations, or fundamentally alter geopolitical power structures.
