Golden Crescent  

Definición

  • The Golden Crescent refers to a geographical area in southwest Asia encompassing portions of Afghanistan, Iran, and Pakistan. The region's poppy fields are among the world's top suppliers of opium, rivaled only by those of the Golden Triangle region in southeast Asia and, to a lesser extent, Latin American countries such as Colombia and Mexico (which are significant suppliers to the United States).
