Drainage Divide
Drainage divide explained in an easy to understand way:
Imagine you're trying to decide which way to go when you're at a crossroads, with one path leading to a bustling city and the other to a quiet countryside. This is similar to a drainage divide, which is a high ridge that directs water to flow into one of two different watersheds, just like how your decision directs you to two very different destinations. The crossroads is like the ridge, acting as the point of decision, where water (or you) must choose a path, ultimately determining the direction and final destination of the journey.
