Supply and Demand

In economy, supply and demand is a model that helps you to determine the price of something in the market considering the level of interest in the product and how scarce that product is.

If many people want the same resource and that resource is not common, the intrinsic value of it becomes considerably higher. If you want to have that, you might have to offer something of great value to its owner.

In today's market, it means that if a product is rare and many people want that, the value in money is going to go up.

Same goes for the example on the question, since the supply is low and the demand for water is high, those with more to offer are going to be the ones who get it. If it goes the other way around (too much water and not much interest in it), the price would decrease considerably.

Why weren’t the Shah’s policies well received by some of the Iranian people?
densk [106]

Answer:

Because Iraqis believed that Shah's policies departed from the concepts advocated by Islam and was an attempt to move closer to Western concepts.

Explanation:

The last Shah of Iran developed revolutionary policies that deeply disintegrated Iranians and started a series of conflicts known as the "white revolution".

These policies included economic and social reforms, which according to the last Shah, would lead Iran to become a strong world power. These reforms included the adoption of various Western policies in all political, economic and social sectors in the country. Among the changes we can mention the adoption of western clothes by men, the abandonment of the use of the veil by women, the permission for men and women to be together in any situation, the release of elements of American culture such as films and music, among other factors .

The Iranian population concluded that these policies violated the main concepts defended by Islam, in addition to being an attempt to bring the country closer to Western libertinism. As a result, most of the population was unhappy with the policies established by the Shah.

Answer:

Bolivar was able to free Venezuela from Spanish rule and abolish slavery.

Explanation:

Simon Bolivar was the most influential and famous among the leaders of the war for the independence of the Spanish colonies in America. He is the national hero of Venezuela. He began his military activity in 1810, being already quite a mature man. Bolivar joined Francisco de Miranda, who rebelled against the Spaniards, and soon became one of the most respected leaders of the rebels. Among the other leaders of the rebels, he stood out for his education and knowledge of military art. On July 5, 1811, rebels proclaimed Venezuela an independent republic. After the defeat of the republic by Spanish troops in 1812, Bolivar settled in New Granada (now Colombia), and at the beginning of 1813 the rebel army led by him entered the territory of Venezuela. In August 1813, his troops occupied the capital of Caracas and soon the Second Venezuelan Republic was created, headed by Bolivar. Venezuelan National Congress awarded Simon Bolivar the title of Liberator.

Why did journalists call the Alaska purchase of 1867 “Seward’s Folly”?
Naily [24]
The imagined Alaska basically as a whole lot of land that is good for nothing. Although he got a good price in comparison, Alaska is huge and cost a lot of money. Just imagine what you think of the Arctic, then having the US pay one trillion dollars for it. Not great.
