Water resources are essential for agriculture, industry, and human consumption, making them vital for a nation's development. Adequate water supply ensures food security, promotes economic growth through industrial activities, and improves public health. Managing water resources sustainably is crucial for ensuring long-term development and prosperity of a nation.

Mountains can affect a nation's development by creating natural barriers that limit transportation and communication, leading to isolation and regionalism. They can also provide valuable resources like minerals and water, which can be both a source of wealth and a constraint on development. In some cases, mountains can influence cultural and societal practices, shaping the identity of a nation.

The traditional resources model emphasizes the importance of natural resources as the primary drivers of economic growth and development. It posits that access to and control over these resources, such as minerals, forests, and water, are crucial for a nation's wealth and prosperity. This model often overlooks the role of human capital, technology, and institutional factors in shaping economic outcomes. Overall, it prioritizes physical resource extraction and utilization as the foundation of economic activity.
