Where John the Baptist baptized people?
Basically John baptized in the area of the Jordan River, a particularly sacred place to Israel. The Israelites crossed over the Jordan into the Promised Land, a picture of final deliverance. Elisha had told Naaman, the general of the Syrian Army who had leprosy, to "Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean." 2 Kings 5:10. Naaman balked at this, thinking that the rivers in his homeland were much better than the muddy Jordan. Yet when his servants reasoned with him as to the simplicity of the command, he washed in Jordan & he was healed. In John 3:23, it tells us that John the Baptist "was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there..." This was very close to the Jordan. Some think, however, that it may have been one of the small lakes spawned by the Wadi Farah, as backwaters leading into the Jordan. Nonetheless, it was associated with the Jordan. When Jesus was baptized, Matthew 3:13 states: "Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. With over 300 prophesies of the Old Testament fulfilled in Christ's first coming to earth, this appears to have much significance also. When John thought it should have been Christ who baptized him, Jesus said: "Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness." v. 15. The Jordan was a special place to the Kingdom of God, picturing deliverance from the bondage of the old way of life & an ushering into the new way of life, which opens the promised land of eternal life. The Biblical form of baptism (immersion) provides this same picture. Romans 6:3-11.
What country controls the headwaters of the Jordan river in northwest Asia?

There is a river that's runs between modern day Palestine/Israel and modern day Jordan. That river was called since Ancient Times Al- Urdon.
