Red Sea

The Red Sea is a large body of water in the Middle East, connecting the Indian Ocean with the Mediterranean Sea. 

This historic waterway is bordered by many countries, such as Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Djibouti, Israel, Somalia, Sudan, Eritrea, and Egypt.

Made famous in the Bible for being the sea that was split by Moses during the Exodus, the Red Sea continues to hold considerable geopolitical and commercial importance. The two entrances to the sea, the Bab-el-Mandeb straits between Yemen and Djibouti and the Suez Canal in Egypt, are some of the most vital waterways on Earth.
