===Water supply and sanitation===

Water supply and sanitation continues to remain issue as the nation continues to further urbanize and struggles to fully modernize. Although urban areas have better access to a basic water supply, the cannot be said for rural areas, especially in recently acquired territory. 96% of the urban population has access to an improved water source and 85% of the urban population has access to improved sanitation. In rural areas, 90% of the population has access to an improved water source and 62%% of the population has access to improved sanitation. The main source of water for the isles comes from the few rivers, river basins, and lakes. Eridani Theta has become the main source of water for the isles thanks to the island's eight major rivers. Before Eridani Theta's integration into Fortuna, the main source of water came from the lakes and rivers of the Fortunan Archipelago, specifically on the islands of Emili and Toscani. Dams have been constructed across the Aspirian Isles to be used for water storage, water supply, irrigation, and hydropower. A few of the largest dams in Fortuna include the Caniglia Dam and Renno Dam that are the main suppliers for the Destino Metropolitan, the Siri Dam for Terine, and the Donati Dam for Equilaria and much of central Eridani Theta.
