Assignment 1: The Democratic Constitutional Republic Of Honduras

Did you know that not all teenagers in the world get the opportunity to go to school? In the United States, teenagers and even adults are so accustomed to school being required. They are unaware that it is not like that in all parts of the world. In third-world countries, like Honduras, teenagers do not get to go to school unless they are sponsored, because they cannot afford books, school supplies, school clothes, or shoes. It is not that these teenagers in Honduras choose not to go to school, but more of the fact that they do not have the money to attend school. Although there is a definite difference between high school students in the U.S. and in Honduras when it comes to school availability, students in the U.S. and students in Honduras

Honduras is a vibrant country, offering crystalline blue waters, breathtaking jungles, and eye opening mountains. The Republic of Honduras is located in the northern part of the Central America. Honduras was once part of Spain’s great empire. The country triumphed to the end and became an independent nation in 1823. Honduras is a country with rich historical backgrounds. The country of Honduras is the second-largest country in Central America. Even though the Republic of Honduras is facing financial hardships, the country, however, is very culturally driven, making this country a hidden diamond for many. In this research paper I plan to focus on the history, geography, culture and the economical

Foods most common in the Mexican diet include rice, beans, onions, fruits, potatoes, fish, meats, tortillas, and plantains.

Around 16% of the population or around 42 million people, lacks health insurance coverage at any point in time. This is the highest amount of people in the industrialized world and causes citizens immense financial hardship and insecurity. In this system, there is also an inability to successfully control costs. The United States has the largest GDP per capita and the largest healthcare spending per capita. U.S. health outcomes compare poorly with those in the developed world. It is 20th in the world in infant mortality, 29th in low-birth weight babies, and 6th in life expectancy (Ridic, 2012). Another downfall of this system is that some hospitals are able to get the wealthiest and privately funded patients, while those that care for the poor are suffering significant financial losses and closing. Financial incentives encourage expensive high-tech diagnosis, treatment, and specialization; there is not enough primary care as compared to Canada (Cooper,

Time changes many thing as it goes along and passes on of these things is gender and the ways that it effected society as a whole. As we have went through these last few units we have witness the drastic changes that gender roles have gone through. From Pre WWI to Post WWII we see not only how women went staying at home doing nothing much other than taking care of the children to being key contributors to the work force and the ways they ways they went about it should as Women’s suffrage and the ERA . Also how mens roles in America changed too and well as the start of the LGBT community in San Francisco.

Poverty is a major issue that many Hondurans are faced with each and everyday. In 2002, 77.3%

Due to an internal defiance and weakened Spanish government, Honduras was able to declare independence from Spain on 15 September 1821 without conflict.1 Unfortunately, Honduras struggled to move forward as a country due to an existing political disorder which caught the attention of other ambitious nations.2 It was then that Honduras saw the need to rise through economical growth.

We, the people of the Republic of Honduras, declare independence from our unresponsive government. We have come to realize that this government have not fulfilled the duty of protecting all of our universal human rights. Some of which have been violated, such as: no discrimination, the right to life, no torture, equality before the law, no unfair detainment, the right to privacy, and other rights. We feel the need to overthrow the government that was put in place for this republic.

The history of Honduras is a struggle for its people. The authors, who are unknown, wrote Republic of Honduras. Background Notes on Countries of the World 2003, stated that, “Columbus landed at mainland Honduras (Trujillo) in 1502. He named it "Honduras" (meaning "depths") for the deep water off the coast. Spaniard Hernan Cortes arrived in 1524. The Spanish began founding settlements along the coast and Honduras came under the control of the Captaincy General of Guatemala.” Independence was given in the year of 1821when they separated from Spain. They soon joined the coalition of Central American Nations in 1823 called the United Provinces of Central America or the UPOCA. The United Provinces of Central America did not last long. The countries

Political Events have a direct impact on economic performance of a country. In 2009, Honduras faced a political and economic crisis due to a Coup D’état and the financial crisis that affected the United States in 2008. The Honduran economy before the coup, the events that led to the coup, the events of the coup, and the economic impact of the coup will be analyzed and discussed in this paper. The coup d’état in 2009 along with the financial recession that hit the United States, had a significant negative effect in the Honduran economy.

Over usage of commercial grade fertilizer, heavy use of pesticides and other substances could hurt the water supplies surrounding communities which in return can affect overall conditions of some communities because un-clean water can make people sick. Soil erosion is how pesticides can get into water supplies in communities. Soil erodes when you over Tillage while preparing to plant a new crop. Tillage is when you remove weed and break up soil to prepare for new crop growth. But that does not mean soil needs to be densely packed, because if you over pack the soil there will be no room for air, water and nutrients to go through. Over packed soil could lead to low crop yield and unhealthy soil quality. You should add organic matter into your soil every year

In an attempt to support Ghana and various other indebted countries, the bank worked in conjunction with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to produce the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) initiative. The initiative is a unique approach to tackling international debt, targeting Third World countries with the lowest debt sustainability (repayment capabilities). The aim is to ensure that Third World nations are not faced with debt which they can't afford to pay and that the funds released through the initiative are channelled into vital sectors such as education and health care. Bilateral creditors and multilateral lenders cover the expense incurred from the scheme.

In order to sustain the continually growing human population, current agricultural methods are designed to maximize yields from croplands. In many areas, the overuse of land results in the erosion of topsoil. This soil erosion, in turn, causes the over-silting or sedimentation of rivers and streams.

Soil erosion may be a slow process that continues relatively unnoticed, or it may occur at an alarming rate causing serious loss of topsoil. The loss of soil from farmland may be reflected in reduced crop production potential, lower surface water quality
