Hungarians are hungry for freedom

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-16387117

Many Hungarian citizens are protesting the new constitution that came into effect earlier this year. The majority of the Hungarian population disagrees with the change to the constitution as they believe that their country is taking a major step towards a failing democracy.

And as the public mood worsens, so do the country’s ratings, and the chances of attracting foreign investment, and creating more jobs, our correspondent says.

Because of the negative ratings, the country will soon be faced without international aid and without that funding, Hungary will come very close to becoming yet another failed state.

Fidesz won the elections promising to create a million workplaces – but there has been no growth so far.

If Fidesz does not change his ways and accommodate the needs of his people, i am sure he will face a tremendous challenge in remaining the head of state for Hungary as the people continuously rebel.

I just wanted to raise awareness of whats going on in Hungary at the moment, thanks for reading.

Failed States: Somalia

Being my first blog post, I would like to talk about failed states and how corrupt the government has truly become in this world. Failed states are defined as states that have failed to provide the basic elements that are necessary in any sovereign government. Somalia is just one of the many places in the world that have been labeled a “failed state”, however in this post, I will narrow my focus solely on Somalia. “There is no law here, no justice system” says the reporter. I found this quite shocking when I first heard this because I always thought in order to keep any sort of peace between people in a country, a established government should be in order. This country has a population of 9 million and in many parts of the country, “there is no education, as well as no health care”. Most of the aid anyone gets in this country is from other nations. Somalia is not the only country with this problem, many countries in the Middle-East face a lack of government which ultimately results in failure to rebuild a once functional society. This video expressed the helplessness of the Somalian people and  in my opinion they deserve a lot more help in order to rebuild. Thanks for reading my first blog post
