The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The historical and cultural context of "Civil Peace" is important to understanding and appreciating the story in that the author wanted to share the suffering, pain and difficult times that Nigerian people lived after the Nigerian Civil War.  Thousands of people, if not more, died during the armed confrontation, leaving a trail of sadness and sorrow.

Chinua Achebe wrote the short story "Civil Peace" in 1971. This story refers to the Nigeria Civil War times, from 1967 to 1970 and the relative civil peace that ensued.

What would you do if a bully bothered you at school? <br> I need five complete sentences.
PtichkaEL [24]
If a bully bothered me at school, I would first ignore it. Then if the bullying gets worse, I would ask him/her to stop politely(be patient with bullies they are having a hard time, and thats why they are most likely picking on you). If it doesn't stop I would report it to an adult, or a parent. It will stop after this, if it doesn't then talk to the bullies' parents or the principal
