how do the types of governments in africa shown in the country databank reflect africa’s political challenges
choli [55]
We can answer this by making a well-known comparison. The most democratic country in Africa according to data is Mauritius. Formerly a French colony, and known in the language as Maurice, the country did not fare well under colonialism just like all other colonized countries. After independence, Mauritius slowly gained back freedoms that were limited back then and sadly are limited in most other countries in the region today as well. Mauritius’s ruling party is a centre-left party that endorsed positions such as affordable healthcare and education, which can be seen in the great deal of reduction in illiteracy of the country, as well as prevalent issues in the region such as infant mortality. Devastatingly, a fellow African country, Angola, did not have the same fate after independence. Today, Angola is ruled by pseudo-“democratic” president, whose family horde the entire country’s wealth, making them some of the most lavishly inhabited families, while Angola has one of the highest infant mortality rates on earth - having healthy and living children grow up in Angola is more than just a challenge due to their future life, the beginning on its own is barely a start.

Hopefully all countries and societies may one day have free and prosperous democracies and children may never die over corruption.

What information is needed to determine the distance from the focus of an earthquake to the seismic receiving station?
Jet001 [13]

The distance from the earthquake to the observation point is estimated using the arrival time difference of the P-wave and S-wave information needed to determine the distance from the focus of an earthquake to the seismic receiving station.

The distance from the epicenter of an earthquake to the seismic station is determined by the time difference between the first arrival of the P and S waves. This is known as the S-P interval.

Requires triangulation to determine the exact location. Three seismometers are required. A circle is drawn from each of the three different seismometer sites, with the radius of each circle equal to the distance from that seismic receiving station to the epicenter.

This layer lies just above the solid inner core and below it mantle is present. The core of the Earth works like a furnace for the whole composition. It holds the intense heat as well as pressure that helps is maintaining the iron and nickel in the molten state.
