3. what perception do people around the world have of south africa? why do you think they have that perception?

at least a paragraph

People around the world have different perspectives on South Africa.  South Africa is one of the wealthier countries in Africa, and it thrives on its tourism industry.  This means other African countries may be envious of their wealth.  In North America, and other parts of the world people may have a limited knowledge of South Africa, except for sensationalism in the news, so they may feel South Africa is a dangerous country.  There is a decent Muslim population in South Africa, so other Muslim countries may think about South Africa positively.  There are so many factors than can influence people's perception of places and things, from the media, to what they hear from others, that it is difficult to say what the world thinks about a place, since it differs so widely.
