Formal Writing 2

PAZ!

Paz es un elemento más importante en el mundo. Si no tuviera paz, habría destrucción
peleas y guerra similar a Colombia. Colombia no tiene paz y la guerrilla arreció sus combates. Los países que no tienen paz son más pobreza, tienen muchas enfermadas, y son corruptos. Para arreglar el problema, necesito un gobierno que esta de acuerdo con sus ciudadanos y sus vecinos. Necesitan líderes que sepan los problemas y están dispuestos cambiar el país. Los ciudadanos necesito que se paren contra la pelea y las personas que tirano. ¡Tengo espero para el futuro y es posible para todos países a tener paz!
