Why would it be wrong to explain the problems of African pastoralists only through drought?

Correct answer: Because colonial borders, reserves and loss of grazing land were also important factors

Drought was a natural hardship for African pastoralists, but it was not the only cause of their difficulties. Colonial governments converted grazing lands into reserves and farmland, and political boundaries restricted seasonal movement routes. Option A is incorrect because drought did occur; the error is treating it as the sole cause. Exam tip: mention both environmental pressures and colonial land policies when explaining pastoralists' problems.
