It’s where all the trading ports at . For example: before 911 the twin towers where one of Americas top resources places before the big major. But Now New Orleans is one of the top places where all our resources go .. food, money , clothes, etc.. but in order for that to come through it have to go through New Orleans and the Mississippi River first. Mississippi River was a major transportation for settlers and good to ship items east. New Orleans is very important for importing and exporting goods. The river is a major factor in the fight for Louisiana territory. It’s major transportation artery crucial to the economy and trade. It ends about 100 miles downstream from New Orleans.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question does not include options, we can comment on the following.

A key similarity in the policies of the rulers of African states such as Ethiopia in the period circa 1200–1450 was that some African states were capable to overcome geographical barriers and other internal issues to establish trade and diplomatic relationships with other states in Africa, Asia, and Europe.

In the case of Ethiopia, the ruler of Italy received important Ethiopian diplomats that visited Naples in 1450. The Emperor of Ethiopia was King David, and he sent to Naples a man called Pietro, who notify the King of Italy that Ethiopians professed the Christian religion.

Durkheim argues that deviance is important to society. What functions does he believe deviance gives society? Do you agree with
Vladimir79 [104]

I agree with him, in a way that deviance creates norms that eventually informs the members of a particular society of what behaviors are acceptable or unacceptable.

Durkheim mentioned four factors, as to where he grounded the importance of deviance in the society.

First, deviance affirms cultural values and norms. Second, it also clarifies moral boundaries. Third, it promotes social unity by creating an us/them dichotomy, encourages social change, and provides jobs to control deviance. Certain factors of personality are theoretically and empirically related to workplace deviance, such as work environment, and individual differences. Lastly, it can be assertions of individuality and identity.
