Where do global companies now look for the natural resources they need?

Less developed countries

Explanation:

The global companies managed to gain a lot of power with the process of globalization. They were able to expand across the world, and since that was possible they started to use the natural resources wherever they set foot. The main targets for exploiting natural resources are the less developed countries. The reason for this is that there are lot of less developed countries that are very rich in natural resources, but they do not use them and are not really able to manufacture them. The economies of these nations are in such terrible conditions, that even though they lie on ''gold mines'' they are not able to take advantage of it. The global companies use the opportunity, and either buy the rights for the natural resources, or just buy them raw for very low price, manufacture them, and them selling them for much higher prices.

after the civil war, and with the termination of slavery, the south was faced with a big problem; what was supposed to happen and how they were supposed to deal with the freedom and the rights that black people and freed slaves had gained as a result of the north defeating the south and forcing the end of slavery. first, most, if not all, of the workforce of the south came from slaves and they did not have an option to replace the loss of said workforce. second, particularly in the south, people were convinced that black people were lesser, less intelligent, less capable and less smart than whites. this posed a huge problem for them. also, southerners were faced with another issue; freed slaves now had a say in how their lives would be lived and the right to politically choose the way they would be governed. people in the south did not want to accept this, none of this and this opposition and the conflicts that arose from it, not to mention the afereffects of the war, forced the congress of the time to enact and enforce the reconstruction plans that had been proposed by president andrew johnson.
