<span>Logging ranks among the top causes of deforestation in Central and South America, especially because of the high demand for timber in countries importing from the region. In fact, between 1990 and 2010, South America lost about 8.7% of its forest cover, and over 80% of Latin America's tropical species have been lost just within the past 40 years. For the second human factor affecting the environment of Central and South America, according to the World Bank, more than 70% of water used in Central and South America empties back into rivers in the region without undergoing any form of treatment. This implies that industrial and sewage waste flow back into rivers, lakes, dams, and other water sources. This is so endemic in the region that every one in eight people there doesn't have access to clean drinking water.</span>

What was the political legacy of the Achaemenid Empire? <br> -Short answer is fine :)
Pani-rosa [81]

Darius had two most important tasks when he ascended the throne of Achaemenid Empire. He had to conquer the rebellious areas and to integrate them into a systematic empire. The empire is notable for its successful Centralized, Bureaucratic administration. Darius, however, ruled the empire with the help of his provincial Governors who overlooked the territory. Therefore he connected these regional government to the center with the help of the postal system. The success of this empire lies in the fact that the ruler had the ability to recognize and utilize the already established governments. Therefore it can be said that the Administrative system of the Achaemenid was based on the previously existed Akkhadian, Assyrian and Egyptian system of administration.
