The Lilliputians are the first people that Gulliver visits when he begins his travels. The Lilliputians have a system of government in which they do not appoint the most intelligent, or capable, person to a particular job. Instead, they appoint the person who can better perform rope dancing. This rope dancing is dangerous, as the ropes are a foot high (very high for the tiny Lilliputians). This satire exemplifies the way the government of England is not always ruled by clever people either, but only by those who do the most to impress the people in positions of power.
To summarize it, the war is hurting the global economy. everyone is being effected by it. noticed the gas prices going up? ukraine is one of the largest gas transmission systems in the world and with russia invading and less gas being transported, it will become more expensive due to the fact that there’s less and a lot of people need gas. prices are going to keep increasing and increasing. i’m also sure there’s problems in poland since they are providing a lot of ukrainian refugees with shelter, but the economy is what is being effected globally.
