Story (Not explained in this episode): Oil resources in the world began to run out. This caused the fall of many oil-based countries, including America, but the Middle East was ruined as its economy relied on oil exports. The nations there succumbed to famine and bankruptcy. The focus shifted on Africa, where newly discovered minerals that could be used for energy were abundant there and Congo became the major superpower of the world, as a loose Pax Americana which had held the world in peace for 50 years ends. With all these pressing matters, will the Middle East thrive once more or fall, never to rise again? I personally like the Syrian Countryball. I have definitely grown better at drawing countryballs. NOT MEANT TO OFFEND ANYONE AND THIS IS 100 PER CENT A WORK OF FICTION. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A SERIOUS VIDEO, LEAVE THIS PROJECT RIGHT NOW.
