Answer:
During the period that the Articles of Confederation were ratified, America was still at war with Great Britain. Because of that the Colonies were still trying to define themselves as a united country but struggling on how to do so.
Explanation:
Latin America is the most dangerous region in the world, and the situation is getting worse, a lot worse. According to a recent World Bank study, over the past two decades nearly every region in the world has grown safer or at least stayed the same, except, that is, Latin America. Latin America holds eight percent of the world’s population but suffers 40 percent of the world’s homicides and 60 percent of the kidnappings. The murder rate in Latin America is 26 per 100,000. In Europe it is nine.
Of the 50 most murderous cities in the world, 41 are located in Latin America. Mexico’s Acapulco ranked third, with 113 murders per 100,000 in population, behind the Latin American cities of Caracas, Venezuela, placing second at 134, and San Pedro Sula, Honduras, with 187, winning the dubious honor as the most dangerous city in the world.
Greece is a crossroad of cultures, it is in Europe, but also it is near Egypt and the East. So it had a big exchange of ideas and philosophy, it developped science and trade, and being surrounded by the sea, it developped maritime skills (military and trading fleet). This lasted form antiquity to modern history.
