<span>Herodotus and Thucydides take two different approaches in recording history. They are both considered fathers of their respective branches of historiography. Herodotus, although he has some interest in the facts, is mostly writing to entertain his audiences. He writes a history of the Persian Wars, but spends most of his time writing about the histories of different places involved in the story. He sensationalizes stories to make them more interesting, and changes facts in order to show a moral or lesson, and sometimes completely makes things up (like giant gold digging ants, ect.) Its unsure to what extent he consciously made these things up, or if he believed them and had just heard them from unreliable sources. There is truth to his writing, but one must consciously glean what is true from what is false, and go into his work knowing that you can't trust everything he says. </span>

You're asked to compare three things here: wealth, location, and democratization. Start by narrowing the choices down using what you know.
You're comparing North America to Africa. North America is roughly considered wealthier than Africa as a whole because most areas in Africa are still in poverty. That eliminates choices C and D.
Democratization is the presence of democracies in the government. The majority of North America is led by democracies. Also democracies give people the freedom in their economy allowed for greater wealth. That makes B your correct answer.
