To my view‚ there are lots of positives that can be pointed from the bloc‚ but I have pessimism that Africa will one day become a truly independent and united continent as were the dreams of the OAU founding fathers. I am not surprised that some people are questioning the achievability of OAU founding fathers’ ideas. I do not want to liken pan-Africanists such as Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana‚ Ahmed Ben Bella of Algeria

The stromatolites is a single cell organism that lives off sunlight and it would fill the air with oxygen making life on earth possible. 10. Alfred Weneger was a German weather scientist and proposed that the continents had been joined together. 11. It made an extrapolation of the rocks.

shelves have similar shapes and thus‚ appear to be once fitted together. (Figure 1.1 and Figure 1.2) The similarity of southern continents’ geological formations had led Roberto Mantovani to speculate that all continents had once been a supercontinent and was smaller in its volume than it is now. Through volcanic activity‚ fissures are created in the crust causing this continent to break apart. However‚ this theory‚ known as the Expanding Earth Theory has since been proven incorrect. The Theory of Continental

with the plate tectonic theory in the mid 1960’s. The Tectonic plate theory had an advantage over previous predictions as it could be supported by observed occurrences. One such thing that supports these two theories is that seen from space the continents look as if they might once have been joined together. This possible idea was then proved to be almost certainly true when fossils of similar plants‚ animals and similar rock types of a corresponding time period were found on the east coast of South

However‚ most texts still continue to date the beginning to 3.8 billion years ago. As the Late Heavy Bombardment (LHB) ended with the Hadean‚ the newly forming crust continued to stabilize‚ and eventually led to the creation of the continents. When the continents first appeared is still under debate. The Earth in this period was moderately warm. Although the sun was about 30% cooler than it is today‚ the geological activity of the earth was much higher‚ leading to a somewhat temperate climate.

Why did western Eurasian societies become more powerful? What enabled these parts of the world to develop more quickly and in turn be able to conquer less developed societies around the world? The important message to grasp from this article is not about how certain continents or areas becoming developed quicker‚ but why those specific areas were

Continental drift is a theory stating that the Earth’s continents have been joined together and have moved away from each other at different times in the Earth’s history. The theory was first proposed by Alfred Wegener in 1912. Whilst his general idea of continental movement eventually became widely accepted‚ his explanation for the mechanism of the movement has been supplanted by the theory of plant tectonics. However there was a problem in accepting this idea originally because Wegener had no convincing

Currently‚ all the UN/AU peacekeeping missions in the African continent fall into scenario five and under chapter VII of the UN Charter. Therefore‚ scenario one to four have become obsolete‚ because they are not applicable to the current environment in the African continent. The UN/AU employ these scenarios to argument multidimensional peacekeeping missions‚ scenario five. For the reason that the current environment

Geology of Co. Louth (Sedimentaryrock; Clogherhead) (Folds in the Clogherhead Formation.) Sedimentary Rocks: These rocks there are three basic categories of sedimentary rocks. Students should know how each type is formed and be able to give examples of each. Sedimentary rocks form in layers (bedding planes). The three groups of sedimentary rocks are: Sedimentary rocks are formed on or near the surface of the earth. They develop in layers called strata these are formed by compressed sediments
