Can someone please fix up all the issues in this essay?Libya is located north of Africa. It borders Algeria, which is the largest country in Africa, Chad, Egypt, Niger, Sudan and Tunisia. The capital is Tripoli which is populated with 1.126 million that's twice as less than Brooklyn. The second biggest city in Libya is Benghazi. It has a lot of history in it. It used to be an ancient Greek City. Later in the thirteenth century it was invaded by the Turks. In 1911, Italians invaded Benghazi. World War 2 had much effect on Benghazi and during the Battle of El Alamein, they defeated African Corps. Benghazi was heavily bombed during World War 2, however, it was able to rebuilt itself with the country's newly found oil wealth. Libya’s land is like a desert. Its plateau forms part of the North Africa, which extends from the Atlantic Ocean to the red sea. The ground is barren rocky and like a sand desert. Libya has many good beaches such as the Zuwarah and Farwa Island. It has natural features like the most prominent Sahara desert and Mediterranean coast. In Africa, Libya has the longest Mediterranean coast line. Mogharet el Kantara is one of the most famous mad-made features. It’s a wide cave with paintings of mostly cattle and homestead scenes. The highest pint in Libya is Bikku Bitti, or Bette Peak. It’s in the extreme south. The main geographical areas are Tripolitania, Cyrenaica, the Sirte desert and Fezzan. The Mediterranean Sea and the desert get affected by Libya’s climate. Their climate is a lot like Israel's. They have cool and rainy winters however it’s not humid. Unlike New York City, the deserts are very hot and dry in the summer. Just like most countries, January is coolest month and June is the warmest. March is the wettest month while January is driest month of the year. Libya has a transitional government. There was a Dictator named Muammar Qadhafi but he was taken over in 2011. It still continues today. On June 2014, Libya had its second government election, since Muammar Qadhafi was over thrown. The Constitutional Court that had ruled the parliament that was elected was corrupt. The Pro-Islamist soldiers partnered up with the Muslim brotherhood and have made similar organizations. The head government, chief of state and prime minister is Fayez al-sarraj. Libyan flag colors meaning the colors represent the three major regions of the country. Red stands for Fezzan black signifies Cyrenaica, and Green indicates Tripolitania. The star and the crescent represent the main religion in the country, Islam. The Libyan culture is a combination of many other cultures, due to its exposure to many historical eras. Its culture includes roots in Berber, African, Turkish, and Muslim cultures. Libya was also part of the Italian colonies for about three decades, which had a big result on the Libyan culture. The native language is Arabic. Food in Libya is one of the most important events of any Libyan family. “One must eat well” is what Libyans say. Milk, grains, olives, palm dates and olive oil are the main ingredients for their dishes. The common foods and dishes contain; A dish made up of a cooked wheat flour lump of dough, sometimes butter, honey or rub; flatbreads and breads; Bureek and turnovers; couscous, a north African dish of Semolina; Ghraybeh which are butter cookies. Holidays take great part of the Libyan culture. Eid-al-Fitr is one of the major Muslim holidays. It involves many Muslims waking up early and praying either at an outdoor prayer ground mosque. Finest clothes are worn in this holiday. They decorate their homes with light and other ornaments. An additional holiday is the Day of Arafan. This holiday is an Islamic festival celebrated on the ninth day of the month of Dnu-al-Hijjah. Do u Libya’s most played sport? It’s actually Israel's and the whole worlds but Americas most famous sport. If you thought soccer than you have predicted correct! Soccer is the most admired in Libya. Libyans are passionate towards Soccer. Camel racing is also a major sport that Libyans enjoy to play. Just like any other country in Africa, Libya has its own unique dress code. Women outside of cities rules for clothing: 1. You’re not allowed to wear see through clothing 2. only loose fitted clothing 3. clothing must cover all body parts 4. no name brands 5. do not wear men’s clothing or items worn by faithless women 6. nothing that attracts attention 7. The clothing shouldn’t have a perfume scent In cities women are allowed to wear skirts and pants three-quarter-length. There is no need for head scarves.

NickiDaisyJordanTomGatsby For each character, write down five characterizing adjectives to describe what you know about them. Characterizing adjectives should be features that can be backed up with evidence from the text.

Answers

Nick: intelligent, naive, observant, pure, discreet

Daisy: vain, shallow, passionate, insensitive, selfish

Jordan: straightforward, smart, experienced, fun-loving, accepting

Tom: determined, brave, aggressive, deceitful, unfaithful

Gatsby: ambitious, naive, honest, pure-hearted, intense

Nick is new to the vanity of society, its shallowness and selfishness. He believes people to be good and he is discreet, not discussing other people's affairs.

Daisy, on the other hand, is skilled in the art of social climbing. She and her friend Jordan accept reality and society as they are and know how to make the best out of situations. Daisy only thinks of herself and what is best for her and her lifestyle. Jordan is a smart woman, but she has chosen fun over love, a superficial reality over profound dreams.

Tom and Gatsby are opposites. The former is a brute born rich. The latter is a gentleman born poor. Tom, just like his wife, Daisy, understands how the world works and how to make the best out of it. He's used to having anything he wants and knows how to keep the upper hand. Gatsby, though, is ambitious but innocent. Even though he is a criminal, he's inherently good and, just like Nick, believes there is goodness in everyone. That is precisely his mistake. He idolizes Daisy, failing to see her ugly selfish heart.
