The main cause is poverty and lack of education. They're very poor, so they can't afford school. If the children do go to school, they drop out very young to work and help earn money for the family. That's not the kind of cycle people can break out of easily. Add to that the civil war from 1960 to 1996 where the military persecuted the native people, killing up to 200,000, and they've had a pretty rough time of it.

Really need help with one question... 2. Textiles and apparel are an industry that many countries tend to protect. Underdevelope
Svetllana [295]
Lowered trade barriers will help the textile and apparel industry in under developed countries because there is more freedom for exchange of goods. Trade barriers hinders companies to export items to other countries or get imports from other countries so lowering it will allow more connection with other countries and will enable for the textile goods or finish products to be known to other countries and will also help allow the industry grow because more international clients will be accepted since it will be easier for them to export items with less hassle. It might be harmful because other people might exploit the industry that's why with lowered trade barriers arises more competitors. This will also allow smuggled good to be exported or imported with less security.

Why did alexander go primarily east and south from Macedonia and Greece in his conquest
sdas [7]

Alexander III of Macedon went east and south in his conquests because of few reasons. The Greeks were already conquered by his father, but he needed to secure his authority there so he made a few big blows for them, especially because the Greeks despised the fact that the Macedonians conquered them.

The most advanced civilizations were on the east, and also they were the most powerful, with the Persian Empire being at the top at that time. Knowing that in order to be able to create a large empire he needs to eliminate the main threat, Alexander went for the Persians and managed to win.

In the south, Egypt was the traditional place of civilization, prosperity, and it had a well established reputation, so Alexander went for it and took it under his control.

He had plans to go westwards towards Rome, but since Rome was nothing special at that time, neither in cultural manner nor in militaristic one, he went for what was more important.
