5 Discovery One of the most important natural resources in this region is oil. It was discovered in Persia (now Iran) in 1908. In the 1930s, more oil was found on the Arabian Peninsula and around the Persian Gulf. © Brain Wrinkles

6 Discovery Today, over half of the world’s oil reserves are found in this region. The Middle East has become extremely important to other countries as it has taken control of oil production. © Brain Wrinkles

9 Transformed This region has been completely transformed due to the discovery of oil. Traditional ways of life are disappearing as the oil industry develops and modernizes the region. Southwest Asia has the world’s largest known oil reserves, and Saudi Arabia and Iran have the largest deposits of oil. © Brain Wrinkles

11 Oil’s Importance Many countries around the world depend on oil to meet their everyday needs. Oil (petroleum) is used for: Fuel Medicines Plastics (Think of everything that’s made with plastic!) Fertilizers & Pesticides Cleansers Countries need oil, but most don’t have it, so they must buy it from oil-producing countries. © Brain Wrinkles

13 Oil’s Impact Because so many countries need oil, Southwest Asia’s oil-producing countries have taken control of the global economy. Many Southwest Asian countries have become dependent on oil sales. Money from oil sales has been used to better the lives of the people in the oil-producing countries. © Brain Wrinkles

15 Oil Wealth Oil and natural gas have brought much wealth to some countries in this region. Oil-producing countries have enjoyed an improved standard of living. Citizens that live in these countries may have access to quality houses, food, health care, education, jobs, transportation, communication, and luxury items. © Brain Wrinkles

17 Oil Wealth The countries have used the money to build modern buildings, schools, factories, hospitals, etc. Also, they have been able to pave old roads and build new ones. The life expectancy in these countries has increased by over 15 years because of advancements in healthcare, hospitals, medicines, education, etc. © Brain Wrinkles

19 Examples Money from oil sales transformed Saudi Arabia from a poor, nomadic society to a very wealthy, modernized one. Turkey has benefited from the oil industry because it is a transportation hub for countries moving oil to sell in Europe. Afghanistan also profits as a transportation link when oil is shipped to Central Asia via the Arabian Sea. Iran and Iraq are also oil-rich, but their countries have suffered from war and mismanagement of oil money. © Brain Wrinkles

20 Unequal Distribution Some countries have grown very rich due to their oil production (Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait), while countries without oil are struggling. Southwest Asian countries without oil have a much harder time improving living conditions for their population. This drastic difference in the distribution of oil wealth has led to many conflicts among Southwest Asian nations. © Brain Wrinkles

23 Summary Much of the world’s oil is under Southwest Asia, but oil reserves are not distributed evenly among the region’s countries. Saudi Arabia & other countries along the Persian Gulf coast have a lot of oil and are all wealthy countries. The wealth from oil sales is not evenly distributed among the citizens of the countries in Southwest Asia. © Brain Wrinkles

24 Distribution of Oil Map Key *Billions of barrels of oil
Your Task: Use the chart above to create a 3-D model of the oil production, consumption, & reserves in the world. You will be using a world map, clay, and pipe cleaners to create your model. *Billions of barrels of oil What do you think the economy of Southwest Asia should be based on their oil production and reserves? What must these countries do in order to get more oil? Which countries are consuming more oil than they are producing? What can they do with their extra oil? Which countries are producing more oil than they are consuming? Answer the comprehension questions below: Draw a key for your map below. (For example, red pipe cleaner = Production) Using a scale of 1 centimeter = one billion barrels of oil, place pipe cleaner lengths (representing consumption, production and reserves) in each region using the clay as a base. (Do not use pipe cleaners to measure reserves in Southwest Asia—I will give you yarn for this one.) Divide the clay into seven pieces and place each piece on the regions listed above. Use a red marker to circle the 7 regions listed in the chart on your map. Ex) Europe’s pipe cleaners will be 3 cm, 5 cm, and 23 cm. © Brain Wrinkles Distribution of Oil Map Key

28 Oil Distribution Political Cartoon
Directions: Design a political cartoon to represent how the unequal distribution of oil impacts different SW Asian countries. In the textbox, describe what’s happening in the cartoon and how it is significant to SW Asia’s oil distribution. Description: © Brain Wrinkles

1. What important natural resource was discovered in Southwest Asia in the beginning of the 20th century? 2. How much of the world’s oil reserves are found in this region? 3. What has happened to traditional ways of life in Southwest Asia as a result of oil discovery? 4. Which Southwest Asian countries are the most oil-rich (have lots of oil reserves)? 5. What is the economic development like in these countries? 6. Describe the economic development of countries without oil reserves: 7. What has the unequal distribution of oil often led to amount Middle Eastern countries? © Brain Wrinkles SW Asia’s Distribution of Oil Comprehension Check
