Why is it incomplete to explain Maasai difficulties only through natural drought?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Colonial land loss and movement restrictions were also important

Drought reduced the availability of grass and water and therefore harmed Maasai pastoralism. However, the hardship was not purely natural. Colonial rule took over much of the fertile grazing land, created boundaries, and restricted seasonal movement. This made it harder for the Maasai to reach alternative pastures during droughts. Option B is incorrect because drought did affect pastoralism, while option D states the opposite of colonial policy. Exam tip: mention both environmental causes and colonial land policies when explaining Maasai difficulties.
