History

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.

who wrote the declaration of independence and who influenced these ideas? what are unalienable rights? who helped the colonists
STALIN [3.7K]

The Declaration of Independence is written by Thomas Jefferson.

After publishing "A Summary View of the Rights of British America" in 1774, Jefferson gained a reputation as an eloquent voice for the patriotic cause, and he was tasked with writing a draught of what would become the Declaration of Independence.

The most famous ideas in the Declaration of Independence, according to most scholars today, were derived from the writings of English philosopher John Locke. Locke wrote his Second Treatise of Government in 1689, during England's Glorious Revolution, which overthrew James II's rule.

Jefferson was influenced by George Mason's Virginia Declaration of Rights, as well as his study of natural rights theory and John Locke's writings, particularly Two Treatises of Government.

HELPPP Why did the Aztecs have to continuously repair or rebuild their temples and buildings?

Aztec Temples

Aztec temples were called, by the Mexica people of the empire, Teocalli - god houses.  The priests of the Aztec religion went to these temples to worship and pray, and make offerings to the gods to keep them strong and in balance.

Identifying the Aztec temples has been a tricky job at times.  It's been easy to simply assume that large, monumental structures such as pyramids are all either palaces or temples, but that may not be the case.  Still, we do have a good understanding of what happened in the religious areas and how the many of the buildings looked hundreds of years ago.

Often a whole area of a city would be dedicated to religious activities.  Some monuments would be made to specific gods.  Some were built for specific celebrations.  The buildings you probably associate with the Aztec religion are the great pyramids.  These were four sided, stable structures that can withstand the earthquakes that are common in the area.  These would have stairs up one side, and a flat top, often with a shrine on the top.  Let's take a look at some of the Aztec temples specifically:

Templo Mayor

Height: 60m/197ft

The gods: Huitzilopochtli and Tlaloc

Distinctives: A double temple

Completed: 1497

Materials: Built of stone and covered with stucco and polychrome paint

Templo Mayor was a part of the sacred area of the city of Tenochtitlan, now Mexico City. It was only one of perhaps 75-80 buildings which included other pyramids, ornamental walls, gathering places, shops and, of course, bathrooms. Since the city was build on swampy ground, the temples would often sink and needed to be repaired and built up over the years.

The temple itself was the main religious building of the capitol city, and it had two shrines on the top - one to Huitzilopochtli and one to Tlaloc. Huitzilopochtli (Hummingbird of the South) was the patron god of the Mexica people, the one who led them to Tenochtitlan in the first place. He was the god of the sun and war. Tlaloc was the god of rain and fertility. Both gods required constant human sacrifice. During the final phase of construction, thousands were sacrificed.

Many, many rituals were done at the temple - human sacrifice, of course, is the most well known. But there were many more, such as the private ritual blood-letting, burning of copal (a tree resin), and the music of worship. This Aztec temple represented the Hill of Coatepec, where the Mexicas believed Huitzilopochtli was born.
