Persian Gulf Wars<br />

The Persian Gulf is one of the most volatile regions in the world. In the past two decades,<br />

an explosive combination of politics, oil wealth, <strong>and</strong> ethnic <strong>and</strong> religious tensions has<br />

fueled two major wars in the Gulf region. The map below shows key features <strong>and</strong> results<br />

of those wars. Examine the map, then answer the questions on the following page.<br />

1. What two wars are shown on the map? When did they take place?<br />

2. What two parts of Iran did Iraq attempt to invade? What lay just across the border in<br />

those areas?<br />

3. What does Kuwait have that might provoke an Iraqi invasion? From which country<br />

did the Allied forces launch their counter-attack?<br />

4. Critical Thinking: Region The Kurds are a distinct ethnic group that wants to create<br />

a separate state in Southwest Asia. Why would that be difficult?<br />

ACTIVITY After the Gulf War, the Allied forces imposed a trade embargo on Iraq. They<br />

also established no-fly zones to prevent Iraqi air strikes on ethnic minorities: the Kurds in<br />

the north <strong>and</strong> Shi’a Muslims in the south. Do research with a group of classmates to find<br />

out how these sanctions have worked. In your group, discuss the effects of these sanctions<br />

<strong>and</strong> whether they are appropriate or justified.<br />
