 A few days going well...                                                    Europe is a continent facing a crisis 1. 3,000 men, women and children rescued in the Mediterrenean. Dozens of others found dead on boats, or other vehicles. This happened over two days just a week. Hundreds of thousands of people are fleeing their homeland, hoping for asylum 2, a safer and securer place to live in Europe. They are leaving behind violence in Afghanistan, instability in Lybia, a years long civil war in Syria. And some of the European countries where they are headed are feeling a strain on their borders. Hungary, for instance, says the flow of migrants is creating an emergency. Its government says 1,500 people are illegally entering the country daily, it calls that unacceptable. Hungray is sending as many as 2,000 police officers to help to secure its borders. It is also building a temporary barrier, a type of fence along its border with Serbia. Walls had been built throughout history to protect countries or to keep certain certain groups of people apart. The great wall of China, may be the most famous example. There is also H's wall, intended to sheild Roman Briton from what the Romans called barbarians 3. Peace wall in northern Ireland still seperate Catholic 4 areas from productive 5 ones. Spanish territory in Moroco was fenced in. A United Nations buffer 6 zone stretches across the island of Syprus. The number of walls seperating different parts of the world seems to be increasing.
