Famine has been a recurring phenomenon throughout human history, with documented instances dating back thousands of years. Notable famines occurred in ancient civilizations, and significant ones have been recorded in more modern times, such as the Irish Potato Famine in the 19th century and the Great Chinese Famine in the 20th century. While it's difficult to quantify the exact number of years famine has occurred globally, it is clear that it has affected many regions and populations intermittently over centuries.
