Greece

April 26, 2015 by Randy

pure greek

Greece is located in southeastern Europe and forms an irregular-shaped peninsula in the Mediterranean with two additional large peninsulas projecting from it: the Halkidiki and the Peloponnese.

Indo-European peoples, including the Mycenaeans, entered Greece about 2000 B.C. About 1200 B.C. the Dorians, another Indo-European people, invaded Greece, and a dark age followed. Classical Greece emerged about 750 B.C. composed of small city-states. Greece reached the peak of its glory in the 5th century B.C. when the Parthenon was built under the leadership of Pericles. The Peloponnesian War weakened the nation and it was then conquered by the Macedonians. By the 2nd century B.C. Greece had declined to the status of a Roman province. It remained within the Eastern Roman Empire until Constantinople fell to the Crusaders in 1204. In 1453, the Turks took Constantinople and by 1460, Greece had become a Turkish province. The insurrection made famous by the English poet Lord Byron broke out in 1821, and by 1827 Greece won its independence.

Today Greece is a parliamentary republic with the executive power being held by the President; the Prime Minister heads the government and is responsible to a 300-member unicameral parliament. In 1981 it joined the European Union and in 2001 it adopted the Euro as its national currency.

It is the birthplace of democracy, Western philosophy, the Olympic Games, Western literature and historiography, political science, scientific and mathematical principles, and Western drama, including both tragedy and comedy.

This rather small country of 11 million people is home to hundreds of islands, 227 of which are inhabited. It has the 11th longest coastline in the world at 13,676 km (8,498 mi) in length, and controls more than 16% of the world’s total merchant fleet, thus making it the largest in the world. More than 80% of the country consists of mountains, of which Olympus is the highest at 2,917 m (9,570 ft).

Vanuatu

April 26, 2015 by Randy

Vanuatu has been colonized over the years by various peoples each speaking their own dialects before the European exploration in the 18th century which has lead to a complex diversity of languages in the isles. The British and French who settled in the New Hebrides in the 19th Century agreed to a combined Anglo-French leadership which administered the islands from 1906 until independence in 1980 when the new name of Vanuatu was adopted. Independence Day is celebrated on July 30th.

Vanuatu is in a Y shaped chain with four main islands, have a tropical climate which is moderated by southeast trade winds from May to October with moderate rainfall from November to April. The “Cyclone Season” is from December to April and there have been volcanic eruptions on Aoba (Ambae) island since 27 November 2005. The highest point is Tabwemasana at 1,877 meters.

The July 2007 estimated population is 211,971 with ~32% of the population is aged 0-14, ~64% is 15-64 and ~4% is 65 and over with a median age of 23.4 and a life expectancy into the early 60’s.

There are over 100 local languages which are spoken by about 72% of the population with approximately 23% of the population speaking Bislama or Bichelama (pidgin), English 1.9%, and French 1.4%.

Mexico

April 26, 2015 by Randy

mexican flagMexico is a land of beauty, history, and culture, but it’s not without problems. As the world knows, some of the largest issues for the people of Mexico are corruption in the government, poverty, and drug wars.  Mexico has the second highest degree of economic disparity between the extremely poor and extremely rich. There is an average monthly income of $1,000 amongst the people, but with this vast separation of the poor and rich, there are few that reach this average income. The best way to earn an average living in Mexico is through completed education, but this is very difficult to achieve when most teenagers are expected to quit school and start working in order to help out with the family.

Mexico was established as a country in September 27, 1821 with Mexico City being the capital. There are currently over 120 million people living in Mexico. The flag of Mexico represents the people of Mexico and their history. It has three equal vertical bands of green, white, and red; Mexico’s coat of arms (an eagle with a snake in its beak perched on a cactus) is centered in the white band. Green signifies hope, joy, and love; white represents peace and honesty; red stands for hardiness, bravery, strength, and valor. The coat of arms is derived from a legend that the wandering Aztec people were to settle at a location where they would see an eagle on a cactus eating a snake; the city they founded, Tenochtitlan, is now Mexico City.

The main industries in Mexico are plantations such as corn, tobacco, avocado, pineapple, coffee, beans, beef, and dairy as well as industrial items like iron, steel, petroleum, and consumer durables.

Mexico also has the highest amount of Roman Catholic converts per population making it the second largest Catholic country in the world. This is a staggering 85% of the population. The rest of the people of Mexico are Pentecostals, Jehovah Witness’, or Atheists leaving less than 1% of the population being truly born again through the blood of Jesus Christ as their savior. There is a huge need for the truth of the bible in Mexico just as every other needy country in the world.
