Have you ever wondered why some countries stayed with the same technology they had thousands of years ago while others rose to global empires with technology that exceeds even our own imaginations? Jared Diamond has a theory. Diamond believes that these global inequalities boil down to geographic luck. He believes that areas and civilization that had a greater variety of animals, crops and fertile soil had an advantage over those who had less, for example, if an area had little nutrients in the soil, the civilization living there would have to work harder to grow crops, which in turn, would slow the technological progress of that civilization and if the area had lots of nutrients in the soil, they wouldn't have to work as hard, leading to less…

Even today, the domestication of corn plays a major role in the way our society operates, especially in the latino communities. People ranging from the Nahuatls, who remain close to their origins and speak the ancient Aztec language, to the third generation of latinos who live hundreds of kilometers away, corn will always find a way to be a part of life.…
