According to the map above, which countries are likely to be dependent upon the Jordan River for their water resources? How might this lead to conflict?

Answer:

Jordan.

Explanation:

Jordan is more dependent on the river because the majority of Jordan's population is located near the Jordan River, and the area surrounding the Jordan river is the only place where agricultural is sustainable in Jordan

Five countries or areas are dependent upon the Jordan River for water. These include Israel, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and the West Bank area. This might lead to conflict because the Middle East has few freshwater resources.

The Jordan River is a 251-kilometre-long river in the Middle East that flows roughly north to south through the Sea of Galilee and onto the Dead Sea. Jordan and the Golan Heights border the river to the east, while the West Bank and Israel lie to the west. Both Jordan and the West Bank take their names from the river.

The river holds major significance in Judaism and Christianity. According to the Bible, the Israelites crossed it into the Promised Land and Jesus of Nazareth was baptized by John the Baptist in it. In the 19th century, the River Jordan and the Dead Sea were explored by boat primarily by Christopher Costigan in 1835, Thomas Howard Molyneux in 1847, William Francis Lynch in 1848, and John MacGregor in 1869.

Thus the river is significant.
