Olegator [25]3 years ago

The natural resources included gold, diamonds, cooper, cobalt, and rubber. These resources were tapped by the native Congo population through a system of slave labor implemented  by King Leopold II. This made the Belgian government/economy prosper at the hands of the slave laborers in this country. This brutal regime resulted in the deaths of thousands of Congo citizens.

La población Latinoamérica es desigual y se concentra, fundamentalmente, en los márgenes del continente ¿verdadero o falso? Just
Ivenika [448]

La respuesta correcta a esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

Es verdadero.

La población en Latinoamérica es desigual y se concentra, fundamentalmente, en los márgenes del continente.

La población en nuestros países latinoamericanos es muy desigual. Las grandes capitales son modernas, pero llenas de contrastes. Se puede apreciar lujosas zonas residenciales a 10 minutos de barrios pobres. Zonas de modernos edificios financieros, corporativos y hoteles de lujo, pero con muchas zonas marginadas que tienen deficiencias en los servicios básicos como agua, transporte o luz.

Los países Latinoamericanos han sido víctimas de gobiernos corruptos que han saqueado a los pobladores y los han oprimido.

La desigualdad es notoria. Una pequeña porción de clase alta controla el 80% de la riqueza de un país. Mientras que la mayoría de pobladores se anda peleando por el 20% restante.
