         <description><![CDATA[<p>Another reason people have conflict is over resources. This could be food, building resources, oil, etc. in The Rangers Apprentice, they fight to keep their food and waters, along with the cities they built. The invasion of Iraq with Iran is a definite example of this.</p><p>Resources are a significant driver of human conflicts throughout history. In addition to religious differences, competition for essential resources like food, water, building materials, and oil has played a crucial role in sparking conflicts. This dynamic is evident in various contexts, including the invasion of Iraq by Iran.</p><p>The Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988) is a prime example of a conflict made purely by resource competition. One key resource at the center of the conflict was oil. Both Iran and Iraq possessed substantial oil reserves, and control over these resources was a primary motive for the war. The Shatt al-Arab waterway, a strategic river forming the border between the two countries, was another critical resource in contention.</p><p>Both nations sought to secure economic advantages and strategic dominance in the region. Iraq, led by Saddam Hussein, viewed Iran's Islamic revolution as a threat and aimed to assert its influence in the Gulf. The war saw battles for control over key oil-producing areas, such as the Khuzestan Province in Iran. The conflict had devastating consequences, resulting in a significant loss of life and economic resources for both countries.</p><p>In "The Ranger's Apprentice" book series by John Flanagan, the themes of conflict over resources and strategic locations are also seen here, although in a fictional and medieval setting. The books primarily follow the protagonist, Will Treaty, as he trains to become a ranger, a skilled and resourceful warrior tasked with protecting the kingdom of Araluen.</p><p>Throughout the series, conflicts arise not only due to ideological differences (as seen with Morgarath and his religious following) but also because of territorial disputes and the competition for essential resources. The battles and skirmishes often involve attempts to secure key locations, protect valuable resources, or put the plans of the Evil Morgarath to an end.</p><p><br></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>All throughout history, the main leading cause of war is difference in religion. This Ted talk made by Rohan Therattil serves as a great explanation to why. In my anchor text, Morgarath creates his own religious following to oppose the knights of Araluen. The French wars of Religion are a good example, as French Catholics and Protestants fought from 1562 to 1598. All the while three million people died. Rohan Therattil's Ted Talk explores the historical connection between war and religion, The speaker emphasizes that throughout history, religious differences have been a major cause for conflicts. Therattil provides excellent </p><p>examples in regards to the French Wars of Religion (1562-1598)  where Catholics and Protestants engaged in a prolonged conflict resulting in three million casualties. The talk suggests that understanding the role of religion in fueling conflicts is crucial for promoting peace and avoiding devastating wars.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Dear Audience,</p><p><br></p><p>This letter I hope finds you well.</p><p>I would like to speak on the issues of famine and survival in third-world countries. My book, “The burning bridge” is all about</p><p>about survival, starvation and slavery, a real world problem.</p><p><br></p><p>My research extends down to</p><p>Studies and trips made from cuba,</p><p>where there are no electricity,  major food shortages, and blistering weather conditions. From Videos of</p><p>people going down in the wilderness to survive, to Ted talks, Juan Carlos tells his tale as a Cuban refugee very well.</p><p><br></p><p>The Canadian Red Cross association is my symbol of choice, as they are a beacon of hope for starving families and people in need. The Red Cross donates money to those in need.</p><p><br></p><p>Learning about the tough living conditions</p><p>other people have to go through really puts in prospective just how good we have it as first world countries. If you have a roof over your head and a plate of food once a day, you’re doing better than eighty five percent of the world’s population. </p><p><br></p><p>So sometimes you should sit back, relax, and be thankful for what you are given. </p><p><br></p><p>Sincerely</p><p><br></p><p>Ryder </p>]]></description>
