During this research project I had many obstacles but one of the biggest was that I did not know what or how to start my project. There were too many amazing things to write about the country of the Bahamas. After I found the topic that I wanted to write my essay on I started doing my research which led me to another problem.  The topic I wanted to write on did not have enough information. Eventually, after searching the internet I finally did find a topic I was certain about and with enough information.

The topic I chose was the wealth of The Bahamas and the pros and cons of it. Tourism and Government are the heavy hitters on the reason for the Bahamas wealth. Tourism makes up about 60% of all incomes in the Bahamas and it also makes up about half of the jobs. Whereas the government doesn't tax and they also establish offshore banking which lures in wealthy people all over the world.

From this research, I learned many new things about the economy of the Bahamas. I had always thought that the Bahamas was a third world country. Instead, they are actually the third richest in the "New World." Also, it is the first country Christopher Columbus landed on his voyage to New World this country has many great amazing histories. I want to visit the islands of the Bahamas one day I just wouldn't know which one of the 700 islands would I go to.

This research has made me very curious about the other islands in the Bahamas. It has made me want to know more about all the islands of the Caribbean. So whenever I get some down time I am hoping I will be able to research and learn more about the other islands of the Caribbean.

Bahamas The Bahamas are made up of 700 islands off the coast of Florida in the Atlantic Ocean. It is a big tourist attraction.  The yellow elder is the national flower, the Lignum Vitae (tree of life) is the national tree, the flamingo is the national bird, and the blue marlin is the national fish. It was the first place Columbus landed in the New World. Most Bahamians live on New Providence Island, which is where capital city, Nassau is located. Here you find a majority of the people are West Africa descendants. The other is a majority of American settlers descendants. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_the_Bahamas#/media/File:Flag_of_the_Bahamas.svg Traveling to the Bahamas     The Bahamas is a sight to see, it has many tourist attraction.

                                                  Have you wondered what it is like to be rich and wealthy? Try visiting one of the private islands or resort in the Bahamas, or “Baja Mar” as named by Christopher Columbus. The richest country in the Caribbean, the Bahamas is the 3 rd richest country in the new world, behind the United States and Canada. The wealth gained by The Bahamas has affected them positively and negatively. Some of the negatives are false information that people have mistaken. On the other hand, the wealth has helped all 700 islands prosper as a country. The two main topics talked about when it comes to the wealth of the Bahamas are the government and tourism.

Compare The story little Cog-burt and Cotton Candy have many similarities. There are some obvious similarities and other not so obvious. The obvious being both stories took place in the Caribbean. Another analogy that was more in detail was the fact that one of the main characters Little Cog-burt and the main character Lola in Cotton Candy both show unconditional love toward a non human things. For example Little Cog-burt falls for the doll that was placed on top of the Christmas tree.  While Lola falls for the a butter fly. Which she was naming after her ex-relationships. Also both characters were very picky on what they wanted. All of Lola's boyfriends names started with the letter D. While Little Cog-burt also was very picky where he did not appreciate the gift that was given to him like the other kids. A similarity that relates to the country the stories are from is that both countries were colonized at one point. Contrast  The main difference between these two st
