\huge\boxed{\fcolorbox{cyan}{pink}{Answer}}

The Phoenicians were the greatest traders in the ancient world for the period between 1000 B.C.E. and 600 B.C.E. These were highly skilled shipbuilders and sailors built strong and fast sailing vessels to carry their goods. They learned how to navigate and how to use the North Star to sail at night. It is possible that they even sailed as far as Britain and around the southern tip of Africa.

To fight off pirates who often harassed trading ships, the Phoenicians designed special warships to accompany their trading fleets. Oarsmen would propel a sharp ramming device at the front of the boat into an enemy's vessel, putting a hole into it that would cause it to sink.

To expand in trading, the Phoenicians also built outposts that later became great cities in their own right. The most famous of these outposts was Carthage (located in modern-day Tunisia). Carthage eventually became wealthy and powerful enough to challenge the Roman Republic.

Phoenician merchants acted as middlemen for their neighbors. They transported linen and papyrus from Egypt, copper from Cyprus, embroidered cloth from Mesopotamia, spices from Arabia, and ivory, gold, and slaves from Africa to destinations throughout the Mediterranean.

To what extent has south africa overcome the legacy of apartheid
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

has become fashionable in some circles to run down post-apartheid South Africa. This occurs not only in those sections of the media that believe African success is a contradiction in terms but also, more surprisingly, in quarters that strongly supported our transition to democracy and drive towards social justice. The Guardian's columns have not been exempt from criticism: Chris McGreal delivered some intemperate parting shots when he finished a 12-year stint as a southern Africa correspondent. We take such criticism seriously, but also find it inadequately based in fact and reality.

Take HIV/Aids. The latest survey by South Africa's human sciences research council confirms a UNAids report that shows falling levels of HIV infection among young South Africans. Prevention messages about condom use, abstinence and faithfulness are being taken to heart, especially by young people.

What are some reasons students go into college with limited knowledge about sex?
Natali [406]

I am assuming you are asking about sexual intercourse.  

In prior years, particularly High School years, the topic isn't talked about a whole lot.  Students usually leave with the anatomy of pleasure parts instead of the knowledge of how to pleasure their partner.  

Watching adult videos online is most likely unrealistic.  Some people don't realize that in those videos, those adults are professionals and not everyone acts like the way they do in bed.  

Some students may find the topic hard to talk about.  We are told of unrealistic beauty standards at a young age, and eventually how our parts are "supposed" look like.  They are also fed very little about the information on how you can achieve climax; some people do things differently.  

Growing up, students might experience times where they are hinted that sexual intercourse is shameful.  Most students, therefore, feel discouraged to ask questions.

The topic of same-sex intercourse is also quite untouched.  Negative stigma is often floating around constantly and would make students interested in the same sex to be discouraged to talk to others about the topic.  They, therefore, often reserve to online adult videos which gives them the perception of unrealistic standards.
