History

6 0

With a few exceptions the world's 45 landlocked countries are poor. In spite of technological improvements in transport, landlocked developing countries continue to face structural challenges to accessing world markets. As a result, landlocked countries often lag behind their maritime neighbors in overall development and external trade.

Foe countries, easy and free access to waterways (navigable rivers and oceans) has always made trade more profitable because sea transportation can reach other markets faster and farther away. In trade, every extra day added to make goods reach their destination costs more money which is added to the retail price turning their purchase less attractive. Besides, the transportation of goods by land is much more limited than transportation by water and exposed to accidents and/or robbery along the road. On the other hand, ships have always been able to carry pretty heavy cargo in a shorter time while cutting down on the price of the goods sold in foreign markets.

What changed the lifestyle of the Paleo-Indians and led them to form permanent settlements? the abundance of plants and animals
Advocard [28]

The Paleoindians were the first groups of populations who inhabited the American continent as a result of the events of the glacial period between 45,000 and 12,000 BCE. This period created a glacial "bridge" between what is now Russia and Alaska. This made it possible for people from that age to cross all the way to the American Continent.

The arrival of the Archaic Period saw the continent experience more mild weather. This made it possible for people to settle within a certain geographic latitude, as it was no longer necessary to migrate in search for warmer weather due to the harsh weather conditions of the glacial period. It also meant that vast extensions of terrain would now be available for crop cultivation, which would be used as a source of food for these people.
