Answer:

Both wars are due to the "Arab Spring". The Syrian conflict also includes an international factor.

Explanation: When we talk about the similarities between the two wars, we can say that both are the result of the "Arab Spring". Arab Spring is a massive uprising of the people, predominantly in Arab countries. The people rebelled against the ruling structures. The revolution first began in Tunisia in 2012 and has continued to this point. The similarities between the two uprisings lie in the fact that a good portion of the population does not support the presidents in power and their arbitrariness. Similarities can be found in the religious and tribal frameworks that result from antagonisms in both countries.

The difference between the two wars lies in several factors. The scale, the destruction, the massiveness of the civil war in Syria is grander. Syria has many more factors involved in the conflict so that there are troops from many parts of the world supported by their governments on the Syrian front. On the other hand, the Yemeni civil war is strictly bound within the Yemeni borders, with the fact that Saudi Arabia has occasional interventions in the Yemeni civil war.

How are countries in the European union linked

jeka57 [31]

The EU is a political and economic union of 28 countries, which developed an internal single market through a standardised system of laws. Politically, these 28 countries are linked by the European Parliament, the European Commission, the Council of Europe and the European Council (the last two have similar names, but they have different functionalities). Economically, by the ECB - the European Central Bank. Monetarily, by the Eurozone and the currency EURO, which is present in 19/28 countries. Also, there's a Schengen area, where passports are abolished and you can travel freely, BUT not all the countries that are in the EU, are in Schengen area (ex. Romania, Bulgaria); and vice-versa: Norway is not in the EU, but is part of the Schengen area.

I hope I helped, I used to have a "map" of interactions of all these countries in different unions/institutions, but cannot find it. If you need one to help you understand the EU better, tell me and I'll intensively look for it!

Update: here's the map.
