Narrow Straits Control a Larger Economy

A strait is a narrow body of water connecting two larger seas. A canal works similarly but is man-made. On world maps, Hormuz, Malacca and Suez are just thin lines. Hormuz lies between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. Malacca lies between the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra, linking the Indian Ocean to the South China Sea. The Suez Canal cuts through Egypt, linking the Mediterranean to the Red Sea.
