Is water really avaliable in all countries?
Water is one of the most abundant minerals on the planet(taking up nearly 71% of earth), however with it's abundancy, many people die of thirst, or have famines do to drought.
One thing that is to be noticed on a major scale is the fact of that although there is an over-abundance of water, most of it is salt water and therefore not able to be drank. In other countries there was never any water to begin with, and if one supply caravan, etc. gets even a day late it could very easily mean the sacrifice of some essential needs that many people in more fortunate contries take advantage of, or in drastic, or extreme measures even death.
