I believe that after life is to have good health, something that any country needs to improve.
In my opinion, education is the image of every country, since seeing a good education in the
country is considered superior and a good place to live. I feel that every day we attack our
planet in an abrupt way and little by little we see the consequences. Therefore, I think we
should take more care of our planet. People are the most important thing for each country
and must be defended at all costs along with their rights.
I think that relations between countries is important because that will open up possibilities of
support between neighbouring countries for the territory. I feel that each country must have
controlled defensive measures and the nation must be prepared for any attack. I feel that in
any case of any situation a good investigation should be carried out to reach a correct
conclusion and catch the culprit. It also helps in making good decisions when making a
treaty between a neighboring country. I believe that transportation is essential as it makes it
possible to connect cities around the country and unite people from abroad.
The reason why I did not choose these last words as the most important ones, is the fact
that the person's formation and health must be taken as a priority. Because people should
be more important to each country and should be valued at all costs. It must be a healthy
country of violence and take care of the planet.
