I WILL GIVE 30 POINTS TO THOSE WHO ANSWER THIS QUESTION RIGHT. What are some myths and misconceptions about ancient/medieval Africa? How can we combat or change these myths?
Answer:(this is your answer for question 1)
1. Its always hot in Africa
-The truth is, that in so Saharan regions, Africa´s temperatures can go well below freezing. You’ll also often find snow in the Atlas Mountains of North Africa and atop Kilimanjaro, Africa’s tallest peak. Some of South Africa’s inland mountains see annual snowfall too.
2. Africa wasn’t civilized before European contact
-Carthage, for example, was a powerful commercial hub and advanced city in North Africa, with roots stretching back around 3,000 years. The civilization thrived for more than five centuries. Then there’s the great Kingdom of Kush, Ancient Egypt’s neighbor, which once flourished in what is now Sudan. And the medieval Mali Empire with its libraries, Islamic schools, and elaborate mosques. Africa was home to several dozen great kingdoms spread throughout the continent – well before Europeans set foot on its shores.
3. Africa is dangerous for travelers
-Of course, Africa has its issues and concerns, just like any other continent. But it’s an incredibly diverse land, and much of it starkly contrasts the media’s portrayal. Many places in Africa are actually safe travel destinations such as, Splendid Seychelles or vast Namibian deserts, Rwanda, Zimbabwe, Morocco, Malawi, and Gambia are safer then the United Kingdom!
4. No one in Africa has access to modern technology
-Much of Africa’s population lives in cities and urban areas, where modern technology is abundant. And the continent is the world’s fastest-growing region in terms of mobile phone adoption. Almost ¾ of the population has a mobile phone, many of which are smartphones with Internet access. Almost 300 million Africans have access to the Internet, and several of Africa’s countries are making impressive strides in the renewable energy sector.
5. ‘African’ is a language
-¨Do you speak American?¨ The people of Africa speak over 2,000 languages. Among them are English, French, Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese – a hangover from European colonization. One of the most commonly spoken languages in Africa is Swahili, yet less than 10% of the population speak it.
6. Europe is for learning, Africa is for adventure
- African countries may have developed in a different way to those in Europe, Asia, and Northern America but that does not make them backward. The truth about Africa is that each of its countries has a rich history that stretches back further than any ‘developed’ nation can claim.
7. Wild animals roam the streets
-Many Africans have despaired at this question and played up the misconception. Telling stories of how they travel to work on the back of their personal elephant. Of how people dropping their kids off at school on rhinos and hippos cause backups in the streets. And how they have to take special precautions to ensure that lions and crocodiles don’t drag them away during the night.
8. There are no cities, only unpaved villages
-Most people consider cities such as Nairobi, Windhoek, Maputo, Lusaka, Gaborone, Dakar, Cairo, and Algiers to be the exception and not the rule. This is one of the great misconceptions of Africa. While it is true that much of the continent is still rural, there are many great cities (as the ‘developed world’ know them) in Africa.
9. Everyone knows everyone else
-This misconception is closely related to the idea that Africa is one country. People around the world often ask South Africans traveling in Europe or the US whether they know cousin so-and-so who lives in Namibia. Or such-and-such who is a tour guide in Kenya. In a sea of 1.2 billion people, spread out over 30 million square kilometers, it’s not particularly likely. It’s akin to asking someone from Germany if they know your friend who lives in Lichtenstein.
10. Africa is one country
-People often go on holiday to ‘Africa’, completely oblivious to the fact that it’s a continent made up of 54 separate nations. Each nation has its own character, history, landmarks, attractions and way of life. Africa is vast. It’s larger than the USA, China, Japan, India, and the majority of Western and Eastern Europe combined. You can’t generalize Africa just as you can’t generalize Europe, Asia, or South America.
Explanation:(this is your answer for question 2)
In short, Africa is not a one-stop destination. It’s a vast, varied, and beautiful continent that’s as diverse as any other. The world still has much to learn about the ‘Dark Continent’, its people, and its place on the planet. This is shown in the African stereotypes we’ve explored in this article. Africa’s countries and their people would appreciate it if the rest of the world could keep all of these myths of Africa in mind. And please, don’t ask us about our pet elephants.
Hope this helps! It took me a while to do! I hope you have a great day my loves <3 -Heiwa
Answer:
Common misconceptions of Africa include the idea that it is behind the rest of the world, lacking in innovative technology.
While climate change cannot be stopped, it can be slowed. To avoid the worst consequences of climate change, we'll need to reach “net zero” carbon emissions by 2050 or sooner. Net zero means that, on balance, no more carbon is dumped into the atmosphere than is taken out.Explanation:

An outcome of the wars for independence in Latin America due to a long-lasting establishment. Thus, option B is the correct option.
One long-lasting outcome of the wars for independence in Latin America was the establishment of independent nation-states. Prior to these wars, Latin America was predominantly under colonial rule by European powers such as Spain and Portugal. However, through years of armed conflict and revolutionary movements, Latin American countries successfully gained their independence.
This led to the formation of sovereign nations across the region, each with its own government, constitution, and national identity. The wars for independence sparked a wave of decolonization that reshaped the political and social landscape of Latin America, laying the foundation for the nations we recognize today.

Bears on the Lewis and Clack Expedition is a text that describes the encounters with bears during the Lewis and Clark expedition. This expedition was intended to explore the unexplored lands of the western United States.
In this text, different main ideas related to bears are exposed, such as:
The encounter of Lewis and other expedition members with a Grizzly bear of about 6000 pounds that they had to kill with at least 10 gunshot wounds.The natives shared their experiences. They only faced these bears in groups of at least 6 to 10 people with the risk that one of them would be killed by the bear.Lewis had to jump into the water to avoid being attacked by a bear as it was chasing him.Lewis reflected and informed his companions that they should not go out alone and sleep with their weapons loaded in case a bear attacked him at night.A good way to avoid a bear attack is to climb a tree because bears are not good climbers as Hugh McNeal did.From these ideas, it can be inferred that the text Bears on the Lewis and Clark Expedition recounts how the expedition's relationship with bears was and how they developed ways to defend themselves from bears.
