Which country has the most floods?
Answer
Floods occur when a high flow of water overtops/ overflows either the natural, of the artificial, banks of a river. However such an event cannot be described as a hazard unless it threatens human life and property. Bangladesh is a low-lying country that has many cases of floods due to its pattern of heavy rainfall and its proximity to cyclone prone water bodies such as the river Ganges.
