History

Fudgin [204]3 years ago

<span>The Berlin Conference set down rules for dividing up Africa. This meant that the European colonizers established national borders that grouped certain African ethnic groups together. This meant that despite ethnic groups being historical enemies, they were now being forced to live within the same boundaries. 

Ex: German & Belgian colonial governments aggravated the historically tense relations between the Hutu and Tutsi ethnic groups in present-day Rwanda and Burundi. The ethnic violence between these two groups resulted in a war that led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people (as we saw in the movie Hotel Rwanda).</span>

Is perfection ever worth achieving
tankabanditka [31]

Answer: no

Explanation: Perfection is one of those words we use too lightly. Almost nothing is perfect. We look at something we like (perhaps a great work of art) and call it perfection. A pitcher throws a perfect game if no one gets on base, but is that truly perfection? Is there such a thing as the perfect wine to go with a meal? A perfect pair of shoes to go with an outfit? To me, the answer is no to all of these. There is no perfect here. Nothing we touch will ever be perfect.
