In a short paragraph, explain what conflict diamonds are, and the Kimberly Process. pls help lol 10 POINTS
Conflict diamonds, also known as blood diamonds, are diamonds harvested as the product of illegal labor. Many are from Northern Africa. Farmers force citizens to mine diamonds with no income and sell them for a large profit. The Kimberly Process is a method designed to prevent illegal harvesters from profiting off of conflict diamonds. There are 81 countries participating in this cause. Sellers are required to show ID as well as proof of valid mining. The Kimberly Process has been effective, but there are still a large number of illegal farmers profiting. This is why there is so much controversial criticism around the topic.

Which of Georgia's regions fits this description: lacks fertile soil, smallest land size, smallest population, TAG corner
Answer:Appalachian Plateau
Explanation:
Answer:
Appalachian Plateau
Explanation:
Process of elimination:
NOT Piedmont, since it contains the highest population.
NOT Ridge and Valley, since much much of the land is used for agriculture.
NOT Blue Ridge, since this is a popular tourism destination.
NOT Coastal Plain, since it is the largest geographical region in Georgia.
This leaves only the Appalachian Plateau, which is indeed the smallest geographical region, has the smallest population, lacks fertile soil, and is a part of the TAG corner.
What is the reason for US presence in SW Asia?
Answer:
Explanation:
Este artículo analiza la política exterior de Estados Unidos en Asia. En dicha región, luego
de caer el tradicional sistema vertical y jerárquico de Estados en el siglo XIX y pasar por
vaivenes de conflictos y guerras en la primera mitad del siglo XX, la presencia de Estados
Unidos permitió el mantenimiento de un statu quo (aunque ciertamente frágil). Este estudio
se enfocará, principalmente, en la administración de Barack Obama que introdujo un cambio
significativo en relación a la política de Estados Unidos en Asia, así como en la actual administración de Donald Trump la cual presenta una tendencia de retorno al aislacionismo de
Estados Unidos.
En efecto, en el siglo XX, la superpotencia desarrolló una política diplomático-estratégica de
compromiso con el «orden internacional liberal» basada en la democracia liberal representativa y en la economía de libre mercado, para así evitar la aparición de otro país hegemónico
en Europa Occidental o en Asia. Dicha política se basaba en el consenso bipartidario entre los
agentes políticos de Washington que daba mayor importancia a Europa Occidental. La administración de Obama cambió esta línea diplomático-estratégica, y dio prioridad a Asia, pero
su optimismo e idealismo con respecto a la posición de China, junto con otras consideraciones diplomático-económicas, le permitieron al gigante asiático tomar una serie de acciones
que provocaron el cambio del statu quo territorial en Asia. Al final, la nueva línea diplomático-estratégica de Obama no se arraigó en Estados Unidos, y con la llegada al poder de
Trump, la política estadunidense en Asia se ha vuelto más confusa y contradictoria. Aunque
ha quedado claro que a Trump no le interesa mantener y promover el «orden internacional
liberal», todavía no se sabe exactamente qué dirección o rumbo va a tomar su administración
con relación a la agenda político-estratégica de las relaciones con Asia. De Obama a Trump,
la política de la superpotencia en Asia ha quedado a la deriva.

The Persian Gulf War is the event in which Iraqi soldiers March into Kuwait, Liberation of kuwait begins, Iraqi Army burns oil wells during retreat. Hence, option B is correct.
What is the reason of Liberation of kuwait?Iraq invaded Kuwait, a country southeast of it, in August 1990 in an effort to strengthen its hold on the Middle East's abundant oil supply. The United States and the UN Security Council demanded that Saddam Hussein withdraw Iraqi troops from Kuwait in retaliation, but Hussein refused.
The coalition forces, who were commanded by the Americans, decisively won the offensive, liberating Kuwait before launching their advance into Iraqi territory over the Kuwait-Iraq border.
After the ground conflict began, the coalition advanced into Iraq for 100 hours before calling for a cease-fire.
Thus, option B is correct.

Write a narrative about a character who goes exploring and discovers new land
Answer:
Noah feels like he's wasting all his time and youth and that makes him sad and depressed every day. Noah is a young man of 24, who enjoys full health and a willingness to live, but lives in an extremely small city with no hope of development, without any attractions, or anything that provides entertainment. He no longer has any friends, because his childhood friends have already left the city to reach new horizons, only he was left behind watching the years go by and the sadness getting stronger and stronger.
He is very afraid to stay that way forever. Then one day, in an act of courage and impulsiveness, Noah decided that he would travel for a month in South America. He was afraid and knew that after that month he would have to go back to his peaceful and decadent life again, but he would experience, something new, would do something for himself, travel, and put himself in a totally different, unpredictable, and challenging situation.
And so he followed his plan and left for South America. He visited almost every country and got to know new cultures, meet people, taste foods he never heard of, and witness innovative scenarios for him. After that month he returned home, he knew that his life would not change, but he had a sense of accomplishment and could hardly wait for the new adventure.
“[Shakespeare] was thirty before he undertook the completion of his first tragedy, more or less properly so called, Romeo and Juliet, in 1594. Perhaps this ambitious work was his first play designed for the Lord Chamberlain’s Men; as probably his next tragedy five years later, Julius Caesar, was designed for the opening of the Globe. They would have been substantial incentives, the formation of the new company, the erection of the new theatre. In the interim he made many more comedies and histories. . . . It is reasonable to enquire what happened to the man who during 1599 and 1600 probably wrote Henry V, Julius Caesar, As You Like It, Twelfth Night, who in 1601 wrote Hamlet and followed it during the next five years with . . . with Othello, with King Lear, with Macbeth.

Who was Christopher Columbus?According to an excerpt from Christopher Columbus' logbook, one of the explorers' objectives was to convert them using gentle methods rather than force. I gave them some red caps and necklace necklaces with beads as gifts.
A navigator and explorer from the Republic of Genoa, Christopher Columbus (born between 25 August and 31 October 1451 and died on 20 May 1506) completed four voyages across the Atlantic Ocean under the patronage of the Catholic Monarchs of Spain, paving the way for later widespread European exploration and colonization of the Americas. His missions marked the beginning of European exploration in the Caribbean, Central America, and South America. The Latin name Christophorus Columbus was anglicized to get the name Christopher.
