Question

What do you mean by famine?

Answer 1

A famine is a severe and widespread crisis characterized by large-scale deaths due to starvation. It also often involves epidemics caused by factors such as the forced use of contaminated water or decaying food and a loss of bodily resistance due to weakening from starvation. Essentially, famine occurs when there is an extreme shortage of food leading to mass starvation and associated health crises.
