Question

"Discovery of oil in the middle east led to settling of people in these areas."Explain why?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Oil has positively and negatively impacted the social, political, and economic aspects of the Middle East. It has increased the wealth of the economy but also led to foreign debt. It kept Saudi Arabia out of the Arab Spring, but has led to political corruption in some countries.The most widely accepted theory for why the Middle East is loaded with oil is that the region was not always a vast desert. ... The oil was captured in place on the seabed by thick layers of salt. As the land in the modern Middle East region rose due to tectonic activity, the Tethys Ocean receded.
