Answer:

Transportation has become much faster, cheaper, and safer through the tunnel built by the Swiss.

Explanation:

The Alps are a natural barrier that separtes the Apennine Peninsula from the  Balkan Peninsula, Central Europe, and Western Europe. Even though these are the highest and most massive mountains in Europe, the transportation infrastructure has been of very high quality, mainly because all countries that have a share of the Alps are well-developed ones. Despite this, transportation has been slow, expensive, and risky through the Alps.

This all has changed with the construction of the longest tunnel in the world built by the Swiss. This tunnel has cut the distance significantly between the countries. Transportation has become much faster and with it much cheaper, so it has been of great economical importance. Last but not least, all of the dangers that the Alps bring to transportation on the surface infrastructure are not present in the tunnel, so safety is not an issue.

harina [27]
Japan still catches whales for their meat and valuable inner organs that sell for high monetary value on the Japanese market. From a moral perspective, it would be fit to stop whaling in all countries due to the endangerment of some whale species, especially since their contribution to oceanic population control is so important to the food chain of sea animals globally.

Juli2301 [7.4K]
The policy, as expected with any authoritarian and centralized coverages, only brought benefit to the state. The one-child policy created despair in Chinese society, disallowing families to have a choice in the size of their family, and increased the amount of femicide in new-borns. The policy also brought further disadvantages to the society in current days, making the idea of families less predominant, as younger generations have been raised in families without siblings and have little to no developed ideas about the future that may cross their path. The state on the other hand raised further power over the people by controlling a traditionally important aspect of their lives, and created a more fearful and obedient generation.
