Perhaps Delphi is best known for its oracle, the Pythia, or sibyl, the priestess prophesying from the tripod in the sunken adyton of the Temple of Apollo. Apollo spoke through his oracle.
Agriculture went through a major transformation after WWII. New tractors, other motorized farming equipment, fertilizers, and establishing crop rotation farming made farming easier and more productive.
Since these new farming ideas and technologies improved farming and made it more efficient, a farmer could farm bigger tracts of land by himself.
This also had a cultural impact on Georgia. After WWII, more people moved to cities to look for jobs, since small farmers lost their jobs. They moved to urban areas to look for factory/business jobs.
Answer: The modern nation of Israel would not exist on the older map.
Explanation/details:
The Zionist movement of the late 19th and early 20th century led to settlement in Israel by many persons of Jewish ethnicity. The main Zionist movement was largely secular in nature, though there were religious Zionists too. Theodore Herzl is typically credited with getting the secular Zionist movement started and leading in the founding of the World Zionist Organization. Convinced that the Jews would never truly be welcomed or assimilated within the countries of Europe, Herzl argued for establishment of their own homeland somewhere. Eventually that "somewhere" became a movement focused on going back to the ancestral land of Israel.
In the wake of the Holocaust against Jews during World War II, there was sympathy in other nations for recognizing the establishment of the Jewish state of Israel. In 1947, the United Nations (UN) adopted a plan for the partition of Palestine that would create a portion of that territory as the state of Israel. Arabs in the region and surrounding Arab nations were not in favor of this. On May 14, 1948, the Jewish leaders in the land proclaimed their independence as a nation, and a war with Arab peoples and nations in the region followed. Israel won that war and established itself as a nation. The new state of Israel was granted membership in the UN in 1949.

Explanation:
The above excerpt from 'The Sky Will Not Fall' reveals the brutal effects of the Civil war on the characters(representing people). It not only influenced the physical outlook of the people's life and personality but also callously harassed them psychologically. The details like 'her father..alive physically, but..inside him...different' display that how William was awfully influenced by the war. <u>The barbarity of war has made him lose his individual characteristics like 'being amicable and easy-going' and converted him into a completely different individual who is 'sullen, rigid, and impatient</u>.'
