    Extractions: GEOGRAPHY Iraq Table of Contents The border with Iran has been a continuing source of conflict and was partially responsible for the outbreak in 1980 of the present war. The terms of a treaty negotiated in 1937 under British auspices provided that in one area of the Shatt al Arab the boundary would be at the low water mark on the Iranian side. Iran subsequently insisted that the 1937 treaty was imposed on it by "British imperialist pressures," and that the proper boundary throughout the Shatt was the thalweg. The matter came to a head in 1969 when Iraq, in effect, told the Iranian government that the Shatt was an integral part of Iraqi territory and that the waterway might be closed to Iranian shipping. Through Algerian mediation, Iran and Iraq agreed in March 1975 to normalize their relations, and three months later they signed a treaty known as the Algiers Accord. The document defined the common border all along the Shatt estuary as the thalweg. To compensate Iraq for the loss of what formerly had been regarded as its territory, pockets of territory along the mountain border in the central sector of its common boundary with Iran were assigned to it. Nonetheless, in September 1980 Iraq went to war with Iran, citing among other complaints the fact that Iran had not turned over to it the land specified in the Algiers Accord. This problem has subsequently proved to be a stumbling block to a negotiated settlement of the ongoing conflict.

    Extractions: GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION Iraq Table of Contents Most geographers, including those of the Iraqi government, discuss the country's geography in terms of four main zones or regions: the desert in the west and southwest; the rolling upland between the upper Tigris and Euphrates rivers (in Arabic the Dijlis and Furat, respectively); the highlands in the north and northeast; and the alluvial plain through which the Tigris and Euphrates flow. Iraq's official statistical reports give the total land area as 438,446 square kilometers, whereas a United States Department of State publication gives the area as 434,934 square kilometers. The desert zone, an area lying west and southwest of the Euphrates River, is a part of the Syrian Desert, which covers sections of Syria, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia. The region, sparsely inhabited by pastoral nomads, consists of a wide, stony plain interspersed with rare sandy stretches. A widely ramified pattern of wadiswatercourses that are dry most of the yearruns from the border to the Euphrates. Some Wadis are over 400 kilometers long and carry brief but torrential floods during the winter rains. The uplands region, between the Tigris north of Samarra and the Euphrates north of Hit, is known as Al Jazirah (the island) and is part of a larger area that extends westward into Syria between the two rivers and into Turkey. Water in the area flows in deeply cut valleys, and irrigation is much more difficult than it is in the lower plain. Much of this zone may be classified as desert.

The society survey found that only about one in seven 13 percent of Americans between the age of 18 and 24, the prime age for military warriors, could find Iraq. The score was the same for Iran, an Iraqi neighbor. Although the majority, 58 percent, of the young Americans surveyed knew that the Taliban and al Qaeda were based in Afghanistan, only 17 percent could find that country on a world map. A U.S.-led force attacked the Taliban and al Qaeda in Afghanistan in October 2001, and President Bush has said he is prepared to use force to rid Iraq of any chemical, nuclear or biological weapons programs.

    Extractions: Geography of Terrorism Afghanistan The U.S.S.R. invaded Afghanistan (1979-1989) to protect the civilian regime from overthrow by several militant mujahideen , supplied and supported by the U.S. over the Pakistani border. Political chaos followed the Soviet withdrawal and the fundamentalist Taliban eventually gained control. Only Pakistan Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirate have recognized the Taliban as the legal government of Afghanistan. Iran Known as Persia until 1935, Iran became an Islamic republic in 1979 when the U.S. under Carter withdrew support for the current shah Reza Pahlavi. Militant Iranian students seized the US Embassy in Tehran on November 4, 1979 and held it until January 20, 1981. Iran is currently ruled by a conservative clerical government that supports various terrorist groups. [LOC Country Study] Iraq Iraq gained its independence from Turkey in 1932. Since 1958 it has been controlled by the military, the latest being Saddam Hussein. Attempts at territorial expansion led to a costly war with Iran (1980-1988) and the Gulf War with the U.S when it seized Kuwait. It is now under U.N. sanctions which make it strongly anti-U.S. [LOC Country Study] Israel Following World War II, the British withdrew from Palestine and the U.N. partitioned it into Arab and Jewish sectors over vociferous objections by the Arabs. In 1967 Israel expanded its territories at the expense of Palestine, Egypt
