The answer is a) True
Since Independence, almost every African country has been plagued by the cycle of Poverty.
Poverty has led to the development of a culture of bribery and kickbacks in between almost every aspect of the government.
With little investment in education and health, the average person has suffered even more.
Many African countries have taken on billions of dollars of debt that they can never pay off.
This has resulted in a 'debt trap' where the little money a country is able to generate, has to be paid in the forms of loans.
Lack of government funds, poor infrastructure, low education, high corruption has also resulted in numerous local rebels and quasi-militia factions mushrooming to challenge what they see as failed governments.
When you combine all these factors, you can see how poverty has resulted in a Pandora's box of problems for African countries.
The epicenter of the earthquake is the spot that is located exactly above the hypocenter. The hypocenter is the spot deep into the ground where the earthquake occurs, thus it is the spot from where all the energy is released. This energy, in the form of vibrations, moves upwards toward the surface in a vertical manner. The spot where they reach the surface is called epicenter. From the epicenter, the energy, the vibrations, are spreading around on the surface. The epicenter is the place where the earthquake is the strongest. As the vibrations spread on the surface away from the epicenter, the strength of the vibrations decreases gradually, so the further away they go, the weaker they are, and the less they will be felt.
I would personally say partition.
