During the fall of European colonialism in the 20th century, new boundaries were established for states in Africa and Asia.

Answer:

A physical boundary is a naturally occurring divide between two areas. Unlike things like politically-drawn state lines, boundaries are not man made. Instead, they are part of nature. A great example of a physical boundary is a mountain. For example, the Pyrenees Mountains, which serve to separate France and Spain, are a physical boundary; so are the Ural Mountains which separate Europe and Asia.

Explanation:

Moving away from physical boundaries, we now come to cultural boundaries. Also called an ethnographic boundary, a cultural boundary is a boundary line that runs along differences in ethnicity, such as language and religion.

Ex : The border between Ontario and Quebec is a cultural boundary between English and French.

B. French Guiana. A small territory bordering Brazil and Suriname that is still under French control, and is treated like a part of France despite being very colonial in nature. French Guianese creole is the most widely spoken language, yet people who only speak that language are at a major disadvantage. The French focused education in a nation where creole is widely spoken has lead to French Guiana to have "an unusually high rate of educational failure; it is the highest in all of France including all overseas’ departments and territories. "

Another place of interest is Kenya. Like many countries in Africa, there are dozens of commonly spoken Bantu languages. Despite this Swahili and English are the only official languages, and thus the man languages in regards to education. In many ways Kenya still retains much of its colonial style education. Opportunities for indigenous people are limited by the fact that Swahili and english are taught up until the 5th grade, but everything past that English is the language of instruction. This creates a vicious cycle of a poorly educated populace with many people not even making it to secondary school

In the colonial period, the area that now comprises the modern day state of Cameroon, was split between British and French control. When the time for independence came, there was conflict and controversy over whether or not British Cameroon should become apart of Nigeria or the newly independent from France Cameroon. This has lead to a tenuous situation today, where the west is mostly made up of Anglophones and the east, the majority of the population, Francophones.

zmey [24]

Answer:

France is once again ruled by a king.

National assembly takes power from King Louis XVI.

King Louis XVI beheaded.

Reign of Terror.

Napoleon becomes Emperor of France.

Explanation:

The French Revolution between 1789 - 1799 began as a result of the people's intention to eradicate all forms of Monarchy to afford the people a direct representation in government. The Monarch at that time, King Louis XVI  imposed huge taxes and had a lot of debts. Also, the Revolution was a result of the American Revolution. Under King Louis XVI's reign, the Estates-General was called to settle the financial problems. The Estates-General was made of the Nobles, Clergy and the Third Estate who were expected to cast their votes. The third estate was made to pay the taxes.  As a result of the combining powers of the Nobles and Clergy, the third estate allied and subsequently established a National Assembly. With these, the French Revolution fully began.

A period during the French Revolution was termed the Region of Terror as a result of the actions by Marie Antoinette and the Robespierre. The Monarch (King Louis XVI) at that time was executed and the Rise of Napoleon ushered in a new era in France as it brought an end to Monarchy.
