Answer 1

Answer:

Are strong governments necessary for small government to succeed?

Explanation:

Strong governments ought to exist for small nations to succeed, this is because:

• Small nations have no mechanisms to exploit their available resources, it is the big governments that provide this,
• Small governments are vulnerable when it comes to defence, strong government have strong defence mechanisms that can help small governments survive.

A good example of this is the small African nations that could not survive during the colonial period, for this reason, strong powers divided them amongst themselves.
