After WW2, my territory was divided, and remains so today. 3. 38° N latitude is the dividing line. 4. The 2 portions of my territory were once occupied by the U.S. and by the former U.S.S.R. 5. The occupied governments have left, but 2 separate governments remain. 6. The 2 countries wish to reunite, but economic differences and disagreements over nuclear weapons have made this difficult. Place #2 1. 2. 3. I was a relatively peaceful place from 1953-1980 - something that was rather remarkable given the history of my founding. The 37% of my population that was Serb and the 14% that was Croat feared living in a country where Muslims comprised 48% of the population. As a result, my Serbs and Croats tried (unsuccessfully) to unite with neighboring Serbia and Croatia. To strengthen the case for unification, ethnic cleansing of Muslims took place. Leaders of my 3 main ethnic groups reached an agreement in Dayton, OH in 1996. In the end, I was divided into 3 main regions, each dominated by a particular ethnic group. 4. 5. 6. ...00 T-Mobile LTE 8:23 PM 59% Readings-Resources Place #3 1. 2. I am considered by some to be a sovereign state, others consider me part of a larger country. The president and political party in power desire my sovereignty, but leaders of the larger country hesitate. The U.S. considered me to be part of another country until 1971; since then they've considered me sovereign. I am now the most populous state that is not in the UN. I am located 120 miles from China. 3. 5. Place #4 1. 2. 3. I am an island containing 2 nationalities that are geographically isolated. I gained independence from the British in 1960 and am still home to several British military bases. My nationalities have never peacefully integrated, especially after the 1974 coup. But, we do supply each other with water and electricity. A buffer zone controlled by the U.N. stretches across the entire island, even through the capital city of Nicosia. Individuals can cross only at official crossing points. The Greek nationality accounts for 78% of the population, the Turkish 18%. 4. 5. ...00 T-Mobile LTE 8:23 PM 59% Readings-Resources Place #5 1. 2. 3. The numerical minority was in control of the government here for many years. The majority of the population was limited in where they could live, work, attend school, and travel in this country. There were (and still are) economic differences between the minority and majority groups. I am a perforated state. 1991 saw an end to my policy of apartheid. After spending more than 27 years in prison, Nelson Mandela became my first black president. 4. 5. 6. Place #6 1. 2. 3. My shape is considered prorupt. I experienced civil war after 1973 when the king was overthrown by a military coup. The government that followed was sympethetic to the U.S.S.R; the Soviets sent in troops in 1979, but withdrew 10 years later. The Soviet-leaning government collapsed in 1992. In 1995, strict Islamic fundamentalists called the Taliban came to power. In 2001, the U.S. invaded me and overthrew the government because it was harboring terrorists. The U.S. military is still here searching for terrorists. 4. 5. ...00 T-Mobile LTE 8:23 PM 59% Readings-Resources Place #7 2. I am an example of a fragmented, multi-national state. I contain 4 main nationalities which hold little independent power, although 2 of them now have separately elected governments. Sports unites my people more than anything else. English is my official language. The 3 other languages commonly spoken here are Welsh, Scottish, and Irish. 3. 7. 5. Place #8 1. 2. 3. I am the world's largest multi-ethnic state. 20% of the population of my country are not members of the majority group. There are at least 170 ethnicities in my country. Tatars, Ukrainians, Bashkirs, Chechens, Chuvashs and Armenians are some of the largest ethnic groups. Before 1989 I was part of an even larger multi-ethnic state whose 15 republics were based on the 15 largest ethnic groups. 4. 5.
