Somali's GDP per Capita is false

Yep . The flood hit the hardest in the south because of the two rivers. EL Nino was truly a once in a century flood. The most equivalent to this that i have learned about recently is the yellow river flood : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1938_Yellow_River_flood#Damages

I learned about it from a youtube video titled "China's Massive Dam (Which Collapsed)"

It was a Sypertyphoon La Nina that pretty much devastated large parts of Chinese and they really didn't recover from it fully for many years to come. It was once in a thousand year flood.

The drought and dry period can be somewhat manageable through water harvesting, storage and supply systems and the lands productivity usually recovers when the rainy season comes , that's why those displaced strictly by drought only are actually minimal in comparison.

To me what i find inspiring really is what the Seed System Groups articulated, namely the resilience and forward thinking spirit, despite the setbacks they refused to be held back by it.

Also correct me if I'm wrong but the 2023 drought actually started in 2021 right ?

In comparison, our neighbor Ethiopia has 15.8M people who face high food insecurity according to the FSNWG.

What about per capita? Ethiopia has a much bigger population.
