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.

A) Describe the political institution Dickinson wants to maintain.
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

A) The political institution Dickinson wants to maintain is the English monarchy.  He provides a series of reasons in favor of the status quo and against the Revolution.  For him, this institution has given the colonists freedom and he believes that establishing a Republic will result in "licentious anarchy and popular tyranny".

B) The English monarchy served as a guide for the colonists "directing them ... to the same object, which is self preservation and happiness".  This institution, according to Dickinson, maintained union in the colonies and gave the people freedom.  The monarchy "only sustains and governs".

C) Representative democracy is a system in which elected officials represent groups of the population in the government.  In the passage, he mentions the Parliament and how it represents the "variety of opinions and diversity of interests", which is what a representative democracy should do.  Unfortunately, though, the colonists did not have a direct representative in the Parliament.
