Electricity from hydropower composes approximately 6.5 % of the total electricity produced in the United States.

A dam or other construction that alters the natural flow of a river or other body of water is used to generate hydropower, often known as hydroelectric power.

One of the world's first forms of energy, hydropower produces power when moving water spins a turbine or wheel. As far back as ancient Greece, farmers utilized it for mechanical activities like grinding grain. Additionally a renewable energy source, hydropower doesn't emit any hazardous byproducts or pollute the environment. Discover more about the development of hydropower.

how do the types of governments in africa shown in the country databank reflect africa’s political challenges
choli [55]
We can answer this by making a well-known comparison. The most democratic country in Africa according to data is Mauritius. Formerly a French colony, and known in the language as Maurice, the country did not fare well under colonialism just like all other colonized countries. After independence, Mauritius slowly gained back freedoms that were limited back then and sadly are limited in most other countries in the region today as well. Mauritius’s ruling party is a centre-left party that endorsed positions such as affordable healthcare and education, which can be seen in the great deal of reduction in illiteracy of the country, as well as prevalent issues in the region such as infant mortality. Devastatingly, a fellow African country, Angola, did not have the same fate after independence. Today, Angola is ruled by pseudo-“democratic” president, whose family horde the entire country’s wealth, making them some of the most lavishly inhabited families, while Angola has one of the highest infant mortality rates on earth - having healthy and living children grow up in Angola is more than just a challenge due to their future life, the beginning on its own is barely a start.

Hopefully all countries and societies may one day have free and prosperous democracies and children may never die over corruption.

The nation’s oldest baseball field, Rickwood Field, which opened in 1910, is located in Birmingham.

3. Arkansas: Little Rock became the capital of the territory of Arkansas in 1821. The name “little rock” comes from the French explorer Bernard de la Harpe. In 1722, he saw rock formations jutting out from the Ouachita Mountains and named one group the big rock and the other the little rock.

4. California: this is the third largest city in the United States. California boasts mountains that are visible from just about anywhere in the state. Two main mountain ranges dominate: the Sierra Nevada and the Coast Range. The Coast Range runs from the northwest all the way down to the Mexican border, across 800 miles of terrain.
