Answer:

Mercator Projection

Explanation:

Since the beginning of time people have struggled with how to represent the surface of the earth on a plane.  

The major problem is that the earth is round while the plane is not, making difficult to express exact distance and proportion.

Overtime different type of projections have been studied in order to pursue different objectives: the Mercator projection  has straight parallel lines and is often used for ship  navigation.

It was invented by Gerardus Mercator in 1569, and it's one of the most common representation of the earth.

It is used for navigation purpose because it helps navigator design straight lines, but it has some major issues in terms of disproportion between places.

Eva (Evita) Perón's legacy has inspired books, musicals, & films; she escaped rural Argentina, where there were few opportunities, & gained prominence as a radio & movie star; Eva's popularity among masses assisted her husband (Juan Perón) in his rise to power; using her radio show to tell people about her husband's policies, she helped him win the support of the working class (whom she affectionately called the descamisados (shirtless ones)); although she didn't hold a political office, she received the honorary title "Spiritual Leader of the Nation"; promising redistribution of wealth, labor reform, & national glory for Argentina, the Peróns threatened security of the wealthy who held power & gave hope to the poor; even in death, Eva Perón remained a controversial figure
Juan Perón had her body embalmed & had planned a large memorial to immortalize her, but his government was overthrown & he was sent into exile in 1955; at that time, the new government hid her body in an attempt to get rid of any evidence of the Perón years; her enemies buried her in a secret grave in Italy, where her body remained until the 1970s; her; her body was eventually returned to Argentina & laid to rest in a family cemetery in Buenos Aires
Her legacy has been subject to different interpretations over time; her supporters view her as a powerful female leader who championed of the poor & middle classes; those who opposed her said she manipulated the masses for her own ambitions; historians continue to sift through diary entries, political documents, & letters to unravel more about the mysteries of Eva Perón
Controversy surrounding Perón rule's reflective of political & social divisions within Latin America
Most nations in South America had gained their independence from Spain by the middle of the 19th century; throughout the remaining decades of that century & into the 20th, many South American nations struggled with political instability; governments rose & fell quickly & military coups d'etat were common; Juan Perón of Argentina is just one example of these political struggles

Reasons for migration
Nimfa-mama [501]
Migration is when the birds go from south to north, north to east, east to north, and south to east.

The reasons for migration is that when it is cold the births fly north to south to find somewhere warmer (Like Florida). Birds can't fly in the cold so they fly to the warmer area.
