The United States and the rest of the world need oil. Without oil, humans wouldn't have the use of many things. For example cars, or power plants. Oil is basically a fossil fuel which comes from the dead or decomposed organisms that existed millions of years ago. Fossil fuels take billions of years to dorm. That is why the world is having wars so their countries can get that oil.

DevinOil is important to Nigeria's economy because it is 90% of Nigeria's income. The money made from selling oil to other countries helps to build highways, schools and factories. Falling oil prices around the world caused Nigeria's income to drop. Also, years of low rainfall caused food production rate to drop.

How has oil production affected some countries in southwest Asia?
Oil was first discovered in Southwest Asia in 1908. Since then, oil fields in many regions of Southwest Asia have been found, and other countries rely heavily on Southwest Asia for oil to meet the demands of their economies: transportation requires gasoline (which is oil in a refined form) and power plants burn oil to produce electricity. Specifically, the United States, Japan, and many European countries heavily depend on Southwest Asia for oil because it is home to such vast amounts of petroleum. So, Southwest Asia's oil fields are important to many countries' economies, and thus the world economy, making Southwest Asia very important in terms of world position.
