Areas such as the Sahel region in Africa, parts of Australia, and the southwestern United States are prone to drought due to factors such as limited rainfall, high temperatures, overexploitation of water resources, and climate change. These regions experience prolonged dry periods which can lead to water scarcity, crop failure, and environmental degradation.
Identifying areas prone to drought helps with better planning and preparation for water resource management, agriculture, and disaster response. It allows for targeted mitigation efforts and focus on developing resilience strategies in those vulnerable regions. Additionally, early awareness of drought-prone areas can help minimize its impact on communities and ecosystems.
The availability of water poses the greatest problem in arid regions, drought-prone areas, and regions with high population density and limited water resources.

How an unusually prolonged drought might affect a biological community?Drought conditions increase soil erosion, damage plants, impair water quality, and diminish biological health. Drought also makes areas more prone to invasion of harmful species and insect infestation.
Some cyclone-prone areas in India include the eastern coast of India, particularly states like Odisha, Andhra Pradesh, and West Bengal. The Gulf of Khambhat in Gujarat and the northern coast of Maharashtra are also vulnerable to cyclones. The Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the Bay of Bengal are another cyclone-prone region in India.

The most drought-prone areas are the areas inland from the coast. Drought hits all areas of Australia (including the coast) but drought is more prevalent in inland Queensland, NSW, Victoria, Northern Territory and throughout South Australia and Western Australia. Even Tasmania can be subject to drought.

A drought-prone area is a region that frequently experiences long periods of low rainfall and water scarcity. These areas are susceptible to drought events, which can lead to agricultural losses, water shortages, and other negative impacts on the environment, economy, and community livelihoods.
the main states with drought are punjab, bihar, maharashtra, rajasthan,orrisa. These are the most common places with drought.

I think Kenya is more prone to drought than Italy. The Kenya's weather is such that you can get a drought in Kenya.
