Scenarios about 'transboundary water conflict'
Transboundary water conflict refers to disputes between nations or regions that share water resources such as rivers, lakes, or aquifers. These conflicts arise from competing demands for limited freshwater supplies, exacerbated by factors like population growth, climate change, pollution, and unequal power dynamics between upstream and downstream states. Understanding these tensions is crucial for exploring alternate histories where water diplomacy failed or succeeded differently, potentially altering regional development, political alliances, and warfare patterns.
