Answer:

The Shatt al-Arab is a strategic waterway.

Explanation:

  • The Shatt al Arab is a river that is 200 km long and is formed by the confluence of the Euphrates and Tigris and has a basin area of the 884,000 km. The southern part of this river constitutes a border between Iraq and Iran as it discharges down to the pacific gulf.

  • <u>In 1937 a treaty was recognized to lower the watermarks on the eastern side of the Shatt al-Arab when Iraq got control over the entire waterway that required all the ships in the al-Arab to fly in the Iraqi pilot, and that needed  Iran to pay tolls to Iraq. </u>

We all use maps, whether they are atlases, street maps, or simple maps we draw for our friends. Describe a map you use regularly
bogdanovich [222]

I have recently moved to a new city, so a map that I use often is a map of the city that includes all important touristic attractions. The map highlights items such as museums, art galleries, restaurants, coffee shops, shopping malls, parks, historic landmarks and other elements of cultural interest.

This map allows me to find locations, but it also includes extra information, such as the nature of each location. The map fits in the category of special interest, as it addresses a need (tourism) that is not usually included in most standard maps.
