      Damming rivers with runoffs into salt plains and salt desert, funneling water into agriculture for gdp, and making enemies in every direction was probably a really bad move, ngl.

      If they hadn’t done any one particular thing in that list then things wouldn’t be so bad, now.

      Heads up, desertification is spreading rapidly through that region due to climate change. It’s not going to rain well every year, mate.
