Who Controls the World's Energy? Oil Pipelines, Baku, Russia, Germany -Worldwide Kill Box

"They sit in boardrooms deciding who gets the oil, who gets the money, and who gets the power. But who gave them the right to make decisions that could determine who lives and who dies? And why are the people paying the price never invited to the table?"

Oil wars, global energy control, international banking, political power, and the struggle over the world's oil and natural gas supplies are at the center of this episode of Psychopath In Your Life. From the oil fields of Baku in present-day Azerbaijan, then part of the Russian Empire under the Romanov dynasty, to John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil empire in the United States, the history of petroleum reveals how governments, wealthy industrialists, banking families, and powerful corporations competed for control of one of the world's most valuable resources.

During the nineteenth century, Baku became one of the world's leading petroleum centers. The Nobel brothers developed major oil operations there, while the Rothschild banking family financed competing petroleum interests and transportation networks. Russian oil competed with American Standard Oil in international markets. The Russian Revolution of 1917, the fall of the Romanov dynasty, the nationalization of the Baku oil industry under Soviet rule, and the redistribution of economic power dramatically changed the international petroleum business. Baku's oil production continued under Soviet control, making the region strategically important during World War II and throughout the Soviet era.

The history of oil includes the rise of Standard Oil, the Rockefeller fortune, the Rothschild family's involvement in Russian petroleum, the Nobel brothers' oil operations, the breakup of Standard Oil in 1911, the Russian Revolution, the First and Second World Wars, Middle Eastern oil concessions, the formation of OPEC, the 1973 oil crisis, the Iraq wars, sanctions against Russia, and the destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines. These developments reveal how petroleum became intertwined with warfare, international finance, political upheaval, and competition for control of global trade routes.

Energy corridors, pipelines, proposed multibillion-dollar investments, government instability, and the struggle to determine who supplies Europe's energy raise l
