Let me be clear. In this world I
understand very little, least of all the world politics, but it doesn't exclude
the opportunity to comprehend the situation in the world. Draw upon the
inspiration from my teacher, which says: "There is no stupid quiestions in
the world, there'are too many foolish answers.." I've decided to write an
article on "The Most Dangerous Countries in the World to live in".
Because this aspect is interested by many people people around.
First of all I want to say that I'm not
a professional journalist, public officer, whatever. I'm just a student, with
indifferent heart.
Second, is that I want to note about
effects of war to a human society...
Wars break out for various reasons.
There are wars between countries or nations and within the nation. The latter
is generally known as a civil war and can occur as a result of differences
based on race, religion, socio-economic dissatisfaction among others. Whether
wars are waged between countries (interstate) or inside the country between
different sections of the communities, the effects are very damaging.
According to experts, the main reasons
or factors that contribute to wars are human greed for wealth and intolerance
towards the other. Many world leaders in fact believe that the main reason
America invaded Iraq was for its oil wealth. Hundreds of thousands of
innocent Iraqi civilians as well as American and Iraqi soldiers have been
killed, injured or maimed. During the eight-year war between Iran and Iraq in
the 1980s, there were more than 1 million casualty figures with millions
injured. The attack on the American World Trade Centre on 11 September 2001
killed close to three thousand people and the subsequent reprisal on
Afghanistan by American forces killed thousands of people in that country.
World War 1 and World 11 combined have claimed millions of lives and in the
African continent, tribal wars and regional wars continue to occur.
The civil war between the Hutus and
Tutsis in Rwanda tad claimed more than 3 million lives and in the Democratic
Republic of Congo, more than 3 million people have died due to conflict
between warlords. Many countries especially in Africa are still embroiled in
tragic wars.
The effects of war are both physical
and psychological. Human societies are deeply affected by wars as residential
areas, public infrastructure, hospitals and the very basis of human existence
are destroyed. Malaysia too experienced war when it was once occupied by the
Japanese and people faced many hardships and challenges to meet their basis
needs. The Japanese only surrendered when the unconventional weapons or
better known as nuclear weapons were used on Hiroshima and Nagasaki which
took thousands of lives and maimed as well crippled thousands of people
exposed to radiation. Thankfully, most warring nations still use conventional
weapons like grenades, rockets and otters which do not inflict that kind of
damage as nuclear weapons.
Wars bring untold miseries as well as
political and economic instability. People's lives and daily existence come
under threat. It would be difficult to find jobs or live our normal
day-to-day existence. Populations are displaced and have to constantly move
about for security. What is happening in Darfur, Sudan is a dire reflection
of the tragedy wars bring. Some are scarred emotionally and physically for
life.
Thus, humans must avoid wars at all
cost. The only way we can protect our lives and ensure stability in our
country is to practice tolerance and respect for each otter. Or else, we too
would become extinct like the dinosaurs!
And here is my
personal TOP 10 of the world's the most dangerous countries (2013/2014)
10) Honduras.
The place has been
long deprived of economic and political stability since the time the place
was devastated by worst floods which had destroyed its infrastructure. With
increased crime and rates the place devastated an origin of terrorism and
violence. Honduras has been reported to have highest killing rates in the
world where recently thousands of people have been brutally murdered.
  
9) Zimbabwe.
With high level of
inflation and corruption at every level, Zimbabwe the place is popular for
nurturing high levels of crimes and violence. This situation is such that the
instability and crime rates have become a common site and practice in the
country where the law and order seem to be practiced to the minimal so much
that an attorney might have nothing to work on.
  
8) Yemen.
Once a well-known
tourist destination, the place attracted good number of tourists from around
the globe. But the recent political developments and events made the
militants overpower everything in most part of the country. Ever since then,
the innocent tourists have been their victims. Kidnapping tourists and locals
for bring ransom in common news.
  
7) Nigeria.
Nature has blessed Nigeria with breath taking
natural visuals and wild life. Nigeria is a very tempting place for tourists
as the place of natural, beautiful and has a wide variety of flora, fauna and
wild life. However the tourism industry in this country is facing
disappointungly worse conditions as there are constants threats to be
kidnapped by militant groups. These groups have grown so powerful that the
central authorities appear to be helpless in dealing with these conditions.
The very increasing terrorism spread by the militants and frequent threats of
kidnappings, have unfortunateky made Nigeria the place unpopular for people,
as once caught up with the incidences there would not be any attorney to
fight for you, as in most cases even the officials are lephless.
     
6) Haiti.
Haiti has seen and experienced some of
the worst natural calamities within a gap of two or three years. Firstly, the
earthqauke has proved to be deadly as thousand people were died and became
homeless, earthquakes contributed in destroying the livelihood of common man
and had left them deprived of shelter and basic amenities. Secondly, the
government has failed in controlling the situation and even helping their own
people. The sudden death of a large number of populations was the worst which
shook the world. The place is badly hit by epidemic cholera and many such
health related problems for its inhabutants. Moreove such bad conditions over
these years have fostered crime rate and violence which further endangers the
peace and prosperity of native people.
     
5) Sudan and South Sudan.
With the independence of South Sudan,
the stability and security of this region has become over worse.
Although the place is independent now, the political deadlock between two
governments has left the citizens to suffer in great misery and the events of
violence, terrorism, serial killings, rapes have become frequent. The
government has not been able to control the situation of law and order and as
a result the degree of violence and terrorism kept increasing. People are
living in the most unpredictable and life threating surrounding, where serial
killings and theft is normal.
     
4) Afghanistan.
Since Afghanistan has been the center
of global terrorism, as the popular base Al-Qaeeda - like a home of global
terrorism, and militant and violent Talibans have made their hidden centers
in this country and operate from there, Afghanistan has been the most popular
destination for militants than normal people. The security conditions of this
country have become too worst to live a peaceful life. The people of
Afghanistan have been always exposed to dealy and uncertain living
conditions, have been subject to face deadly consenquences of global war
against terrorism and have put their lives at stake.
     
3) Iraq.
Ever since the intrusion of the US
Military troops, the security conditions in Iraq has deteriorated
drastically. The condition of Iraqis has grown bad to worst with no security
or protection at all. The interested groups have become more like militants group
and are violent in nature as well. The particular interest groups have
assumed the shape of militant groups and put their demands before the
authorities in a violent way. The regular suicide bombings and target
killings and kidnappings all put together have made the place the most
violent for anyone from outside to live or even visit Iraq.
       
2) Syria.
The effects of Arab Spring are still
visible, and has left many countries of the world including Syria in worst
conditions ever. Syria has been withnessing troublesome period at the hands
of militant groups. It is observed that these violent activities are largely
carried out in the wake of certain violence which has put the lives of
thousands of its inhabitants in danger. The place is inhibited by militant
groups from a long time, making it very hard for the common man to survive.
While the militants don't seem to be getting under control and the government
almost failing to manage their activities, Syria poses high degree for any
outsider.
       
1) Somalia.
The first thing, when we hear about this country is PIRATES...and truly
they do dominate the country with their activities. Somalia is largely known
all around the globe for its dangerous pirates. These pirates have beem the
real bone of contention in countries peace. They are involved in robbery,
thefts, and human trafficking. Moreover, the political conditions in the
capital of the cpuntry are also not very encouraging where murders, shootings
and violence have become a routine matter of day to day life. These dangerous
events have put the lives of inhabitants under great dangers and they find no
peace to live their lives in harmony. Somalia is inficted and home for drug
traffickers. mafias and militants where crimes such as open murders, day
light shooting and violence is a common sight. The most dangerous country to
live in the world is Somalia.
