Euphrates River Has COMPLETELY Dried Up And Something TERRIFYING Showed Up
For the last 6,000 years, the Euphrates River has brought the areas of Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia unprecedented success. It’s been the main source of water for the region, and with it, growth and fertility are unlike anything they’d ever seen before. However, things in the river are changing, and with it, questions are popping up all over. Join us as we dig deeper into the terrifying details scientists have revealed about the changes in the Euphrates river, and what it could mean for the future of mankind.
The Euphrates River is the western of the two great rivers that define Mesopotamia, the other being the Tigris River. The two rivers have their sources within 50 miles of each other in eastern Turkey and travel southeast through northern Syria and Iraq to the head of the Persian Gulf.
They form a great river system, an alluvial salt marsh ecoregion of the Middle East. The rivers have several small tributaries which feed into shallow freshwater lakes, swamps, and marshes, all surrounded by desert. The hydrology of these vast marshes is extremely important to the ecology of the entire upper Persian Gulf, in an area called the Cradle of Civilization due to its ancient history.
The Euphrates is the largest river in Southwest Asia, 1,730 miles long. It is formed by the confluence of two branches, the Karasu River, and the Murat River. It descends between major ranges of the Taurus Mountains.
