For five thousand years, the Nile has been Egyptโs lifeblood, but now, Ethiopia has built something so big, so powerful, that Egypt says it could choke off its lifeline.
These two ancient civilizations have hence been locked in a bitter standoff for more than a decade with negotiations failing, threats escalating, and militaries quietly preparing for the worst.
Now, if this conflict boils over, the world could witness something unprecedented: the first modern interstate war fought over water.
Butโฆ How did we get here?
This is the story of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, or GERD โ the largest hydroelectric dam in Africa.
