Answer:

Apartheid, the Afrikaans word for “apartness” was the system used in South Africa from the years 1948 to 1994. During these years the nearly 31.5 million blacks in South Africa were treated cruelly and without respect. They were given no representation in parliament even though they made up most of the country. It was not until 1994 when a black man named Nelson Mandela came to power in the South Africa congress. Once elected Mandela removed all racist laws against blacks and all other minorities. Nelson Mandela is one of the great leaders of our time.

A hero whose lifelong struggle to the fight against Apartheid in South Africa won him the Nobel Peace Prize and the presidency of his country. Since his release from prison in 1990,…show more content…

However, his successful evasion of the police earned him the title of the Black Pimpernel.

At this time, he and other leaders of the ANC created a new section of the liberation movement, Umkhonto we Sizwe, with a view to preparing for armed struggle, Mandela said, "I and some colleagues came to the conclusion that as violence in this country was inevitable; it would be wrong and unrealistic for African leaders to continue preaching peace and non-violence at a time when the government met our peaceful demands with force." He was elected President of the ANC in 1991, and on May 10th 1994, he was inaugurated as President of South Africa. I definitely have to say that Nelson Mandella had a totally positive influence on everyone in South Africa, not just the black majority but everyone. The reason is because things were really bad under the all white leadership and many white people did not agree with the apartheid system. It is difficult to pick just one or two significant event in apartheid history, so I would like to just briefly mention some laws that were made.

The White South Africa government came up with many unfair laws to keep the black people of the country segregated, these are just a few of the most unfair ones. - Mines & Works Act 1911 & 1926 -Imposed color ban on certain jobs, a white salary was to be higher than a black at all times. Natives (Urban Areas) Act 1923..

The early problems we are facing with the nation today i mean foreign countries today are:

The Middle East

First is how to stem the chaos from the multiple interconnected challenges across the Middle East. The next UK government will be one of the parties negotiating the final terms of a potential nuclear deal with Iran, which, if agreed, could serve as a prelude to broader negotiations on regional security.

But an agreement could also lead to an intensification of the conflict between Saudi Arabia and its Sunni allies, on the one hand, and Iran and its allies in Syria, Lebanon and Yemen, on the other, with Iraq caught somewhere in the middle. The UK, along with other permanent members of the UN Security Council, could find itself serving as one of the guarantors of the security of the Gulf states. Any UK government is also likely to maintain its role conducting air strikes as part of the international coalition against IS.

Should the regional situation deteriorate further, the UK could be pushed into increasing the numbers of migrants that it accepts on to its shores from the region (currently in the hundreds, swelling potentially to the tens of thousands). It will also be a key contributor to the maritime operations seeking to stem the flood of refugees across the Mediterranean.

The UK will also hope that the situation in the occupied Palestinian territories does not deteriorate following Benjamin Netanyahu's electoral victory in March. The possibility of Palestinians abandoning the idea of a two-state solution could embroil the UK, along with its EU counterparts, into a highly charged diplomatic negotiation.

Russian sanctions

Second, should economic sanctions, imposed on Russia after its actions in Ukraine, be renewed? If the ceasefire holds in eastern Ukraine, then pressure will build for the EU to lift these sanctions, even if the Minsk agreement is not fully implemented and the Ukrainian government is unable to re-establish control of its border with Russia. There are divergent views across the EU over the value and efficacy of sanctions. Angela Merkel has taken the lead in building a fragile consensus that has held up to now. But she will need British support if she is to maintain a tough EU line on President Putin.

Climate change

Alongside these two major security considerations lie a number of other important international challenges. Third on the list is the climate summit in Paris in December. The UK has long been a leader in tackling climate change, and its ideas on how to prevent the growth in global use of coal will be especially important in Paris. A deal is crucial to have the best chance of keeping global temperature rises to within two degrees by the end of the century.

Trade talks

The fourth priority will be the completion of the negotiations to create a Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) by early 2016, before the US presidential elections enter their decisive phase. The coalition government has been one of the main champions of TTIP, seeing it as a debt-free economic stimulus to the UK and Europe, as well as a geopolitical counterweight to China's growing international economic power. But the agreement faces fierce popular opposition across the EU including in the UK, where a majority of voters suspects that US companies will use it to undermine European social and environmental standards.

China

In contrast, British and European voters appear indifferent to the fifth major challenge: the growing influence of China. The UK government has welcomed Chinese investment into EU markets - in 2014 the UK took $5.1bn (£3.3bn) out of a total of $18bn (£11.7bn), the highest in the EU. But China's growing importance as a source of investment coincides with an increasingly assertive Chinese approach towards its claims of sovereignty over several small islands in the South China Sea.

While the UK would prefer to focus on China's economic potential, Japan is seeking greater engagement from the UK as a security partner in the region. And with the United States serving as the main guarantor of regional security, the next UK government could be forced to take some difficult decisions on whether to risk economic opportunity on the altar of alliance solidarity.

As important as they are, these five issues will pale into insignificance if the Conservative Party is able to form a government after the election and sets the clock running on an in-out referendum on Britain's continuing membership of the EU in 2017. In this case, British ministers will have little time to dedicate to this pressing dossier of international challenges and will need to focus all of their efforts instead on securing the best possible deal from their EU counterparts in order to be able to campaign to remain in the EU. If such a deal can be secured, then they will face a no less daunting task of convincing an often Eurosceptic British public of the merits of staying in.

Answer:

Answer/Explanation:A merican SOCIALISTS based their beliefs on the writings of KARL MARX, the German philosopher. Many asked why so many working Americans should have so little while a few owners grew incredibly wealthy. No wealth could exist without the sweat and blood of its workforce. They suggested that the government should own all industries and divide the profits among those who actually created the products. While the current management class would stand to lose, many more people would gain. These radicals grew in number as industries spread. But their enemies were legion.

D. invest in the stock market

Explanation:

In this scenario, Roger thinks it would be fun to own a part of a major company. He would like the opportunity to buy shares of ownership in a company. Therefore, an individual can do this by investing in the stock market such as buying of shares, bonds and other securities.

A bond can be defined as a debt or fixed investment security, in which a bondholder (creditor or investor) loans an amount of money to the bond issuer (government or corporations) for a specific period of time.

Generally, the bond issuer is expected to return the principal at maturity with an agreed upon interest to the bondholder, which is payable at fixed intervals.

The par value of a bond is its face value and it comprises of its total dollar amount as well as its maturity value. Also, the par value of a bond gives the basis on which periodic interest is paid. Thus, a bond is issued at par value when the market rate of interest is the same as the contract rate of interest. This simply means that, a bond would be issued at par (face) value when the bond's stated rated is significantly equal to the effective or market interest rate on the specific date it was issued.

In Economics, bonds could either be issued at discount or premium.

Doing this will help people to get a clarity o the  problem and it will give them courage to find a solution to it.
