The Enlightenment was a period in the history of western Europe, where philosophers and thinkers questioned religious ideas of the Middle Ages and traditional political forms, bringing new concepts about society and politics. They also considered that humans could advance through the use of reason.

What do you think were the biggest challenges facing newly independent countries? Would it have been possible for leaders to pre
jeyben [28]

Answer: the biggest challenges facing new countries as soon as they become independent is Civil War social unrest and a crippled economy. Now we're assuming that this country took place on Newland and did not declare independence from any other country so it has no infrastructure or economy so they will have to go into major financial debt in order to start making a GDP and their citizens will not be

happy to not have basic necessities like food water and heat,cooling or a place to use the bathroom. Not only with the social unrest but that the people may revolt and there will definitely be a new ethnic groups in the new country that might want to have their own country rather than stay part of a unified country so Civil War will most likely happen immediately and they will have to go into even more financial debt just to be able to get a strong enough for the to win the Civil War. And the worst part about having a brand new country if that is most likely to not get recognized by other countries so it'll have little to no access the trading routes and they dont even recognize it's independents but for the sake of this country we're going to assume it have sea access. Now it's an online country there will be at least one or two countries that recognize it. So it'll have an area to trade with other countries and it'll most likely be able to stay off after the Civil War but the people will always be mad.
