Now I know where Pau Amma went. Give me the paddle!’ So he took the paddle; but there was no need to paddle, for the water flowed steadily past all the islands till they came to the place called Pusat Tasek—the Heart of the Sea—where the great hollow is that leads down to the heart of the world, and in that hollow grows the Wonderful Tree, Pauh Janggi, that bears the magic twin nuts.

In what ways have the two koreas grow apart? Discuss two ways in which they have grown apart and support each of your points with text. Note: This question is from ' A Tale Of Two Countries.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The two Koreas are two totally different countries although man, many years ago were one territory.
After a story of too much struggle, after World War II, the Soviet Union tried to spread Communism in many parts of the planet: Rumania, Hungary, East Germany, Albania, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Cuba, and of course, North Korea. On the other hand, the United States tried to stop the spread of Communism applying the foreign policy of containment, and that is why the United States supported South Korea during the Korean War. Those were the tumultuous years of the Cold War.
That is why the two Koreas are different. North Korea is ruled by a dictator, it is a Communist country, there are no freedoms for the citizens, and they are very controlled. They do not have the chance to use the internet and cannot have any contact with people from other countries.
On the other hand, South Korea is a democratic country with a neoliberal Capitalist economic structure. People have more liberties and civil rights.

Answer:
Fictional story on a just king and his nasty, villain brother.
Explanation:
The pleasant island of Vanilia was ruled by a just king. His subjects respected him and his beautiful queen but his younger brother was nasty, a villain who would do anything to jeopardize the plans of his brother. He had always wanted the kingdom for himself but wasn't given the throne as he was just the second heir, after his brother.
One day, while his brother was away at war, he decided to capture the throne by causing a revolt and driving away from the loyal subjects and courtiers of the king. He kept the queen in captivity and was able to enjoy his power for some days. The king, unaware that his throne had fallen into the hands of his wily brother, came home to find that almost all his loyal subjects were either killed or imprisoned. Outraged at his brother, he waged a war against the young king and killed him. Those loyal to the younger brother were killed while some shifted loyalties, stating that they had been forced to side with the dead king. The Queen was rescued and the kingdom returned back to its normal condition. The king also made a new proclamation that no one is to feel inferior or superior in his kingdom and everyone stays equal. Such was the quality of the wise king who brought back his kingdom to a state of peace.

Helppppp meeee!!! will mrak brainiest!!!!!!!!!! Hawaii is the world's most remote island population center in the world. The six largest Hawaiian Islands — the Big Island, Maui, Lanai, Molokai, Oahu and Kauai — form a chain of islands running to the northwest. The islands appear in this pattern because they are situated on a volcanic hotspot. A hotspot is an area in the Earth's mantle where plumes of hot molten rock called magma rise up from the mantle, forming volcanos on the Earth's crust. The crust is the outermost layer of a planet. The mantle is the layer below the crust. This process happened with the Hawaiian Islands. They formed one after the other as a tectonic plate, the Pacific Plate, slid over a plume of magma, creating a volcano. The tectonic plate continued to move over the hotspot, and the active volcano lost its connection to the hotspot and became inactive. A new active volcano formed from the hotspot. Which sentence from the Introduction [paragraphs 1-3] BEST introduces the idea of how the Hawaiian islands were created to the reader? A The six largest Hawaiian Islands — the Big Island, Maui, Lanai, Molokai, Oahu and Kauai — form a chain of islands running to the northwest. B The islands appear in this pattern because they are situated on a volcanic hot spot. C They formed one after the other as a tectonic plate, the Pacific Plate, slid over a plume of magma, or molten rock. D The Hawaiian Islands represent a trail of volcanic eruptions.

Read the passage from “A Chip of Glass Ruby,” which describes Bamjee’s perspective of his wife and her support of native Africans. This was not a thing other Indian women would have in their homes, he thought bitterly; but then his wife was not like other people, in a way he could not put his finger on, except to say what it was not: not scandalous, not punishable, not rebellious. It was, like the attraction that had led him to marry her, Pahad’s widow with five children, something he could not see clearly. How does the information in this passage help characterize the relationship between Bamjee and his wife?
Answer: The information in the passage helps the reader understand the relationship between Bamjee and his wife by comparing his wife's personality to other women's. He describes how unique she is and how lucky he feels to have married her, besides how opposite they may be to each other.
Explanation: The character makes a description of his wife, which makes the reader understand that they have a strong and supportive relationship. He acknowledges the fact that he doesn't like the direction she is going, however, "Mr. Bamjee's" also describes every characteristic he loves about her, such as not being scandalous, punishable, nor rebellious, unlike other women. He also admires how committed she is to risk her life to defend equality. All of these words transmit how glad he is to have married her, besides being complete opposites.
