The inner core of the earth is molten due to the enormous heat and pressure in the region. This heat is also fed by the natural decay of radioactive elements in the earth interior. The earth core has a molten outer core of mainly iron and nickel metals that churn due to convection current and spin like a funneled tornado due to the earth rotation. The metals are also ionized (due to the high temperatures) and hence act as an electric current as they churn and produce magnetic fields (that extends around the earth to outer space). There are usually disturbances in churning (that cause incremental instabilities in the magnetic field) and if well-pronounced result to the reversal of the earth’s magnetic fields.

Saint-Domingue (Haiti) was prosperous because of revenue earned from
Rasek [7]

Answer:

Saint-Domingue (Haiti) was prosperous because of revenue earned from sugar.

Explanation:

When the Europeans came to Haiti, the native people lived in a simple way and were relatively isolated from their surroundings, let alone the world. The Europeans though thought that this place has big potential, especially in farming. What the Europeans had on mind was to create large plantations with sugar cane, thus produce sugar and make a profit out of it.

While the Europeans were not many in number, and the native population was decimated, a lot of African slaves were brought as a labor force for the plantations. The wet tropical climate enabled high-scale production of sugar cane, and with sugar becoming increasingly popular and being paid well for, the Europeans earned a lot from the trade. Haiti actually became a very prosperous island, and that was strictly down to the production of sugar cane and sugar from it.
