However, thee same geographical assets that population concentration also create levitalities. Low- lying floodplains are prone to periodyc inundation. Dependence on river water for nariation makes communities sensititivy to droughts. And the stratec value of these corridors can make them flashpoints for territorial disputes and resource contracts.
