It is the world's most important oil channel where so many oil tankers pass to carry oil out of Gulf of Persia.
Imagine this: If Iran runs in a deep dispute with one or more of their neighboring countries or enemies, they can decide to close the strait. What does it mean? Skyrocketing oil price which translates to skyrocketing gas price.
Iran has their largest naval base in Bandar el-Abbas which is on edge of Strait of Hormuz which is about 34 miles wide between Iran and United Arab Emirates.
