During the years 1237 to 1240, the nomadic warlord group known as the Mongols invaded and assimilated the principalities of Rus into their vast empire, known as the Golden Horde. The campaign, lead by Batu Khan, grandson of Genghis Khan, demolished the capital of Kiev, leaving room for the warring principalities to compete for power. Over the next few centuries, Moscow, which until then was considered, “A stepping stone to a better position” (Riasanovsky 97), would rise and become the sole sovereign principality of Rus. In the 14th and 15th centuries, Moscow would rise to create a lasting dynasty by using the Mongol rule to defeat their Russian neighbors, establishing de facto primogeniture, and using the fall of competing empires.

This essay intends to first introduce the disappearing Aral Sea, which due to the extensive agricultural activities devised by the Soviet government in the region, the former fourth-largest lake of the world is now the world's eighth largest lake. This has resulted in perhaps the world's most prominent man-made ecological disaster, giving its location and background knowledge with a map, and then describe its future in terms of how it is going to be utilized and what the consequences are, and then finally state what can be done about this “crisis”.

The Ganges River in India is an important river system that provides water for personal use, industry, and agriculture for well over half a million people. This river also serves a major role in the region’s cultural and religious practices. It is widely believed that this body of water is the Earthly manifestation of the Hindu goddess Ganga.
