The Top 10 LARGEST Cities that should NOT be able to exist. Most big civilizations in the world are located near water (ex. ocean, natural harbor, major river, lake, etc.), but the following places aren't near ANY body of water AT ALL! And a few are in the DRY Desert with VERY little rainfall! How do so many people live in these cities that have no natural source of water in 2023?

The cradles of civilization all started along major rivers, as they provided water to drink and for crops to grow. And once trade between cities became necessary, water served an even GREATER purpose... as the most convenient form of transportation!
Nearly every big city in the world was built along some natural water way, whether it be an ocean, bay, river, or lake. But that all changed with the invention of the railroad, and later airplanes, highways and air conditioning! Now people can build cities wherever the HECK they want, even in some of the DRIEST Deserts on Earth! And some massive cities with plenty of skyscrapers, are now FULLY Abandoned! These are 10 MASSIVE cities in the USA, South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa with no natural source of water, which frankly should NOT be able to exist if it weren't for human innovation.
My biggest suggestion is to visit these cities and states first to decide where you want to move to and live.

I went to Riyadh many times, and you missed a huge fact about its water. Yeah, I know that the drinkable water in markets is from sea by clearing the salts. But, all of the water in bathrooms and kitchens is from water wells. That's way its taste very different as I remember when I tasted it. The city is historical from 300 A.C, and used to wells as a main source of water, and now it is replaced with large machines of hydrolic pumps. Nowadays, geological scientists studied the water geological tank of water under Riyadh, and it doesn't seem to end in any time soon. So, the city HAD its own resource of enough amount of water.

They are Kano, Abuja and Ibadan. I think Yaounde in Cameroon also needs mention. I guess, cities around the world have various reasons for their population explosions that had nothing to do with water sources to sustain the population or enhance trade through waterways.

The aqueducts taking water from the Colorado River isn't enough and is rapidly depleting. The entire west coast of the United States has been mired in drought for quite a while now and it'll only get worse going forward.

@@KuroshiKun let's take a look at the numbers, industrial-scale reverse osmosis requires between 3.5 and 5 kilowatt-hours of electricity per cubic meter of water! To pump one cubic meter of water to a height of 1 m, requires .002kwh of electricity, do you see the price difference is three orders of magnitude! That is all aside from the fact that Aqueduct water, after being pumped uphill can generate electricity on its way back down hill, and desalinated water will also still need to be pumped. From time immemorial, from the ancient Sumerians on, human beings bring the resources to them, that is the basis of civilization. California's the aqueduct program is not impressive by historical standards, the longest Aqueduct built by the Romans was 426 km. The length of the Chinese south-north diversion aqueduct is over 1,200 kilometers. Until there's some massive leap in power generation technology, reverse osmosis is a pipe dream.

Amazing video! I really enjoy learning from all your videos. People can live without love but not without water. Because water is required for all biological reaction and is the driving force of all nature. No water and no life. Nothing is softer than water, yet water is the best weapon since no weapon can resist it.

I used to live in Vegas and knew it would be in this video. Vegas is, as far as I know, the best city for water recycling on the entire planet. They recycle more than 95% of the water they use. The issue with the Colorado River is primarily climate change and Californian agriculture.

If anything, Alice Springs in Australia deserves a mention as well. It's not really a city since it has a population smaller than 30k but it's still 1,200km away from the sea, only gets 11 inches of rain every year and its source of water isn't even a lake or river (artificial or not) but rather from a natural underground water deposit.

There is a lot of ignorance and misinformation about Riyadh in this video. Riyadh is a city that existed in 300 BC and witnessed important wars in the early history of Islam to unite the Arabian Peninsula under the rule of the Rashidun Caliphate. And the name Riyadh literally means a garden, as it was full of farms and gardens, and its water source was wells, and fertile valleys crossed it, such as the famous historical valley, Wadi Hanifa, and it witnessed development after making it the capital of the state and after the discovery of oil. And it is true that the source of water for its growing people is the desalination of sea water. Riyadh was called by other names, such as Al-Yamamah and Hajar

So killing and oppressing millions of the natives is fine, as long as the infrastructure, buildings and amenities meet white standards. Indigenous peoples from around the world were quite fine and prospered before you whites ventured out of Europe and destroyed millions of lives, cultures and traditions.

The good narrative is somewhat undermined by video shots not in any way associated with the places being featured. In the Harare segment, for example, some images are of Kenya, almost 3,000 km away. Btw, Kampala is not on Lake Victoria.
