From communication, trade, agriculture and the location of human settlements, they have played an immeasurable role. Almost 60% of Africa lies within shared rivers and lake basins. The Nile is shared by more than seven nations, the Zambezi by six, and the Congo by nine. With populations on the rise, many countries have been labeled e?water scarcei? nations, and in fifteen years it is predicted that many people on earth will be exposed to water shortage consequences such as famine and disease.
