Venezuela
The Venezuelan crisis represents one of the most severe modern economic and political collapses outside of active warfare, triggering a profound humanitarian emergency and the largest mass displacement in Western Hemisphere history. Stemming from prolonged institutional decay, hyperinflation, and contested electoral cycles, the crisis has destabilized the broader Latin American region as millions of citizens flee across borders.
