In todays class Mr. Shick told us to go back to cia.gov and find an interesting fact about any country we wanted. As we looked for our fact Mr. Shick walked around and checked if we finished our map from yesterday. I did not realize that there was a back and didn't fill it out. Then I got my pop quiz back. I got a 12/20, which is a 60%. After Mr. Shick gave me my quiz we began going over everyones facts. My fact was about The Bahamas, it was "Because of its location, the country is a major transshipment point for illegal drugs, particularly shipments to the US and Europe, and its territory is used for smuggling illegal migrants into the US." One new fact I heard was that in some countries once you turn a certain age you must be in the army for a certain amount of years and you don't have a choice.

In todays class we continued to go over the world leaders and took some notes on key points about them. I found it weird that most leaders had a brother that died. It was also weird that in some countries the person with the most power was not the president. It was crazy to me how many tyrants/dictators there are today.
