Geography

Fantom [35]3 years ago

The biggest problem with the creation of the polders that are below the sea level is the flooding of the same.

Even though the polders are made very carefully, everything is well planned, and all the required measures of long term safety of them are put in action, still there's always the concern of flooding hanging around. Because the polders are bellow the sea level, if by some chance the sea manages to penetrate in them, probably after some natural disaster, than the whole polder will be filled with water and become one huge pool, and because of this water everything in it will be destroyed in just a matter of minutes, thus lots of human lives will be lost, and a huge economic damage will be made.

For the answer to the question above, I would say that the Netherlands was one good example of what are the dangers when creating polders that are below the sea level. The water always goes where there is a lower level of the land. That's when the flooding occurs. You can't have a flood on the mountain. Water will always find its way to lower areas of land.

Sudans many years of civil war have resulted from conflicts between
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Sudans many years of civil war have resulted from conflicts between "Muslim Arabs, and Christian and animist Africans. "

Explanation:

Religion is the essential effect in Sudan’s civil war. The North, with most of Sudan's land and inhabitants, is Muslim and Arabic-speaking, and their religion and language are both important for their individuality. On the other hand, the South´s individuality is indigenously African, with Christian and Western influences. Sudan's first civil war was fought between the Arab-led Khartoum government in the north and rebels in the largely Christian and animist south. Southern rebels were fighting for regional autonomy and representation in the government. A peace agreement was signed in 1972 that granted semi-autonomy to the south.
