Middle Eastern States


In Iraq, there are a lot of refugees leaving to Jordan and Syria. there are struggels going on between territories in the Middle East. Oil has been a big problem in the middle east. Before the discovery of oil, the region had been a hotbed for religious conflict, and wars over other rich resources and arable land. Iraq started war with Iran in the 1980's which dragged through to 1991. Relations with neighboring Kuwait deteriorated and eventually led to an invasion by Iraq in August 1991. To solve these problems in Iraq, the United States are trying to help.
