Today I will talk about what I was talking about yesterday, which was about countries, and the history of some of the countries. The country
that we left off was the United States of America, or the USA. We were talking about slavery, but we just finished that, so now we will talk about
some of the other countries that actually owned parts of the United States of America. So, first of all the British people owned more of America than
any other country that owned parts of America. The British had owned the 13 colonies, and that is why there is 13 stripes on the American flag, along
with the 50 stars that represent the states of America. Anyway, pilgrims were getting mad, because the king controlled everything that they wanted to
do. So, they asked the King of England, if they could actually go to the 13 colonies and live there. The King said that they could leave there if they
wanted to, but they will still have follow the British rules. They agreed and got on a ship, but they all had to be put in the bottom of the ship,
and it was really crowded down there. They also had to be down there for months! So, when they got to America, they started farms and started growing
crops, and they also made tea leaves for the people of England. The king had made a deal that if they had done that, then they would give them
something in return. Anyway, after they did that, they had to pay taxes, in order for the tea to get there. So, the British people that had gone
over there, were getting mad, because they were spending time, and they had to pay for taxes as well. So, the king had said to them, that it was
your choice to go there, and you agreed to the deal as well, but the king hadn't mentioned that they had to pay taxes also! The pilgrims had gotten
fed up of that, and went to war against there own country. Also, some Native Americans helped the pilgrims in the war, because the pilgrims had way
less people than the England army. Anyway, the Pilgrims had of course, won that, and that is how America had become its own country. Anyway, that
was about America, but now we will some other countries, like Italy. First of all, I want you to know that Italy is an old style country, and has
kept a lot of things from the past, more than any other country, or almost more than any other country, but I want to talk about sports. The Italian
National Soccer team is actually a really really good team. Their star player is Paul Pogba, and he is just an amazing player. Anyway, that was
about Italy, and now we will talk about England. England is like the country that is on top of everybody else, because it has taken over almost
every single solitary country and island, that exists in this world! It has even taken over a small island that have a population of 700 people, and
it is really really small, and they actually care about their rule of that tiny island that barely any people actually live in, and tourists don't
come to visit that country that often!

Today I will talk about some of the countries on the planet Earth, and some facts about those countries. First off I want to mention India
as my first country, because I am Indian, and in my opinion, India is the greatest country of all time, in my opinion. Anyway, one awesome thing about India, is that
the British people ruled India, and then this one guy named Mahatma Gandhi, just wanted to make India an independent country, which lead to a war.
With the help of the great Indian, they won the war against the British, and became an independent country. Another fact about this great country is
that is has one of the best armies/militaries in the whole world! India's prime minister(In India the prime minister is basically the president, but
India has a president.)also is a great prime minister, and he has made India have stronger relations with other countries on the Earth, even the
United States of America, as Obama had gone to India, and the prime minister of India had come to visit America, and Obama. In case you didn't know
his name, his name is actually Narendra Modi. Another fact is that Indians are really good artists, and drawers, and builders, as they had made the
Taj Mahal, for an emperor long ago. The last fact about India is that they are the 2nd most populated country in the whole world! The country that is
in first place is China, but they have only around 105,000 more people than India, and that is not that big of a difference. Anyway, the next country
we will be talking about is the country of the United States of America. The USA has some cool history, like the time when the United States today,
was actually 2 other countries. The bottom part of the United States were called the Confederate States of America, and the top part was called the
United States of America. The reason why they were separated, was because of slavery. The bottom states, or the Confederate States of America, had
believed that Slavery was a thing that you could do, and that was because of the president of the Confederate States. The northern states believed
that slavery shouldn't have happened, so the 2 countries had gone to war against each other, and the Northern States had won. The Northern States
were led by the 16th president of the United States of America, and that was the man himself, Abraham Lincoln. He was very tall, standing at 6 foot
and 3 inches, and he also had a top hat that he wore, most of the time, and that top hat made him look a lot taller than his normal height!
Nevertheless, he was one of the greatest presidents of all time, if not the greatest president of all time. Anyway, some other history is also, that
even America was ruled by England, but England ruled only 13 colonies, but France, Spain, and the Dutch wanted their share of America as well, so
they ruled some other states, but we will get into that later, but for now this article will continue in the next article.

Today I will talk about Earth, countries, and some facts about the Earth. There are actually 196 countries on the Earth and People live in
every single country on Earth. One of the most powerful countries is actually the United States of America, and that's mainly because they have the
Number 1 army in the whole entire Earth. Anyway, some other countries that have good armies is India, and China. The biggest country in the world is
so big that it doesn't fit into even one continent! The country that doesn't fit into one continent is Russia and that country fits into Asia and
Europe. There are different continents and oceans on our Earth. The continents are North America, Soth America, Asia, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia
, and some people agree that this is a continent and some don't, but that continent is Oceania and not many people have heard of Oceania. Anyway, the
Oceans are the Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean, and the Southern Ocean. The Earth is a great place to live, and now I will talk about the
space facts about the Earth. The diameter of the Earth is actually 7917. miles! That doesn't seem like a lot but it actually is a lot. Anyway, Earth
is also a inner planet, and has 75% water. Also, Earth has an Atmosphere made of different types of gases, such as Nitrogen and Oxygen. It also has
some salt in the atmosphere, because it evaporated it with the water from the ocean. Anyway, it has its atmosphere to basically stop meteors to get
on Earth as it destroys almost everything that comes in its path. We can only live on Earth, because other planets do not have the necessary things
we need, such as food and water. Some other facts about Earth is that the Earth is the only planet that has air, which makes this planet a unique
one.
