Failing Nations- This article talks about the ways a country can become a failing state and some of the countries that are on the failing state list. Some ways it can become a failing state is because of the geography, a civil war, or a natural disaster.
I'm glad that the U.S. is a safe place to live and that we don't have to worry about not having enough resouces like some of the other countries in Africa.
Shattered Somalia- This article is about what Somalia is like and what life is like for a man named Mohammed. It tells about how Somalia is a bad place to live because there is many bombings, a lot of poverty, kidnappings, and it's very dry there. It also talked about Somaliland which broke off of Somalia and is in the northern half of it. Somalia used to be run by different clans.
I'm glad that America is a safe place to live and that we have a stable government unlike Somalia. I think it's sad that the people who live in Somalia have to live in horrible situations like bombings.
