Strait of Hormuz Explained Like You're 5

Education

The Strait of Hormuz is a 21-mile gap that controls the lifeblood of modern civilization. Through this single corridor flows 20 million barrels of oil every day—one-fifth of global consumption. This is an investigation into the world's most dangerous "glitch" in geography: a 500-year-old hostage situation where insurance premiums are more powerful than aircraft carriers.
