1. fur traders
2. deep harbor

Answer: Both represent backwardness and crisis for a country.
Explanation: A government marked by corruption and anarchy is one that cannot progress. When there is corruption, the country's assets are not distributed equitably, but a small group with power remains with them, leaving the population in need. Corruption is backwardness since the people's money that should be used for the growth of the country is used for other things. When there is anarchy, the nation does not grow since it does not have a power that can direct it in the correct way. The country falls into an imbalance and a crisis may occur.
