Here are my thoughts and responses as to what I come to know for these civilizations' achievements. I even checked my World History notes from last year...
1. Egyptians
2. Sumerians
3. Phoenicians
4. -This is debatable... We could argue early caveman or Sumerians made it, depends on what resource, textbook, or class material you are deriving this from. Maybe Hebrew because they developed Monotheism, belief in one deity.
5. Hittites
6. This is very difficult to elaborate on. Many civilizations had very strikingly similar achievements and reviewing my notes, I can't find anything to give an absolute civilization responsible for this. You'll have to guess.
7. Babylonian?
Sorry I couldn't help with #4, 6, and 7 that well. It's very difficult to answer.
The two things that this three countries have in common are that they are all predominantly Christian countries, and that all three of them have access to sea.
Mexico, Finland, and Ghana, are all predominantly Christian countries. They all fall into different branches of Christianity though, and the percentages vary, with Mexico having the highest, and Ghana the smallest percentage of the population practicing this religion.
All of the countries mentioned have access to sea. This has been and still is very important for their economic development because they are all able to dictate their own economies and their own trade with whoever they want.
Soviet union
After the Cuban Revaluation of 1959, Cuba became increasingly dependent on the soviet union.
