I have become more knowledgeable about the world.

I am more knowledgeable about the world because of many things I have learned about the world. One of the global issues that I have learned is about the drug trafficking in Poland. In the European country of Poland, there are trade routes for Southwest Asian heroin and Latin American cocaine. These trade routes go through Poland to get to Western Europe. As these synthetic drugs, travel through Poland there is violence that is following them. These drugs are a very big problem in Poland.








The poliThis cocaine was confiscated, by the police, in Warsaw Poland.




The twentieth century is another thing that I have learned about. In the twentieth century, there were many different trends and many important events. One major event that I have learned about, that was during the twentieth century, was World War I or WWI. During World War I the Allies were fighting against the Central Powers. The Allies and the Central Powers built tension between nationalist. These two opponents in the Great War used propaganda and exaggerations to increase nationalism in their own countries. This nationalism built up the war and made people fear for their life. They began to believe that if they did not kill their enemy their enemy would kill them. Many people did die but not all died from the bullets, bombs, or poisons. A great amount of casualties came from the pandemics that would sweep across the lands. Many people thought that WWI would be the end of all wars. This Great War would not be the end to all wars but the beginning to many new wars.

Another major topic that I have learned is about this semester is human diversity. That race is a non-scientific to category. Race, I learned, is a sociological nature when people use it as a category. This means that race should not separate us into groups. What we see in people can be clouded by what we see on the outside. When we look at people, we should not see what is on the outside but instead what is on the inside. This means that we should not have any racial boundaries. We should not have any discriminating boundaries, at all. We should love everybody and not segregate people.

Earth is my favorite planet. It has so many amazingly different places in it. One of these amazing places is Poland. Poland has very beautiful mountain ranges, in the southern area of it. Poland, also, has very nice beaches. This is just one great place in this great world. Another amazing place in the world is, Mt. Everest. Mt. Everest is an extremely different place! Mt. Everest is different in an awesome way. Mt. Everest has very harsh winter conditions and very high altitudes. Mt. Everest is the highest mountain range in the whole world. This makes it extremely interesting and extremely beautiful.

In this great world of Earth, there are many unique cultures. These different cultures are usually comprised of many different techniques of building and foraging. The different types of cultures usually depend on where that society is located. In Africa, the way of life, is not too similar to the life in America. This is because of the different growing periods of resources and different season's times. Just because a culture is different form, yours does not mean that it is better or worse. Through these amazing differences, we experience different cultures in different areas of the world.

This picture is showing the different places that are in the world.
