Egypt and Tunisia

Egypt and Tunisia have undergone protests in their country because they didn't like their leader.They also didn't like high levels of corruption or poverty in their country.In Egypt the people have no political power,and there is a lot of poverty.Some people have blamed this on their government and that is that they protested.Two reasons why the protests were believed to be started are for the protests in Tunisia and for a man getting beaten to death by police.

There are many reasons why America got involved in the protests in both Tunisia and in Egypt.In Tunisia it was because they are an ally in out fight against Al Queda.The reason why we got involved in Egypts' protests is because they support us in regional priorities and because we also supply their military with the things they need.In the end the protesters got some of what they wanted and the president stepped down.Although they won that part their economy is still in pretty bad shape.While people were protesting banks,train stations, and schools to shut down.It will take them awhile to get their economy back up and running, and in order to do that they will,as a country, have to work together.
