Volcanoes on the ocean floor erupt to create oceanic islands, often referred to as volcanic islands. Oceanic islands are also called as "high islands," regardless of their height. Low islands are continental and coral islands, which can be hundreds of metres taller than high islands. Even though they are encircled by water, continents are not categorised as islands because of their size. The smallest continent, Australia, is more than three times larger than the largest island, Greenland. In every ocean, lake, and river in the world, there are innumerable islands.

Why are young Eastern European Democracies struggling to establish a free market system?
rosijanka [135]
The Second War brought complete destruction to that region. Entire cities were leveled by the germans and russians.<span>. If you go to Poland today, for example, what you see in Warsaw and Gdansk are copies. The "medieval" buildings are all or mostly reconstructions, from the rubble left behind by German and Soviet bombs and artillery. After that, the communists imposed central planning on top of a destroyed economic base. It's very hard to regenerate money from nothing, and most of what is produced in eastern Europe went into Warsaw Pact defenses and salaries and privileges for the communist party elite, to keep the system of authority in place. After the fall of communism, the post-Cold War governments inherited another kind of economic decay. They instituted "reform" plams to shock the economies into the free market, leaving in their wake massive unemployment and property.</span>
