Chokepoint
A Chokepoint is a geopolitical concept that refers to a “point” where one party can “choke” (i.e., block or restrict) the movement of others, thereby securing maritime dominance for itself. Specifically, it is a place where shipping routes converge, making it a critical hub for maritime traffic.
