The Differences Between My Country and The U.S.

            As everyone knows, Iraq is one of the developing countries.  If we compare between him and the U.S, we will find many differences.  Since I came to the U.S., I have seen many of them

            The first difference is the maps and the addresses.  In the U.S. each building has an address and a place on the map, and this address is saved on the Internet.  Any time I want to go to any place, I just need a smart phone which has GPS.  When you enter the address, the GPS will show you the route and the distance according to the transportation way.  While in Iraq, you never find something like that.  There is no even an address.

            The second difference is the electricity.  The biggest problem in my country is the electricity, especially in the summer.  The temperature in summer is between 40C-50 C (104 F- 122F), and the people are suffering in the conditions without electricity. Most people are depend on themselves and made generators to use it against this killing weather.  While in the U.S., the people do not need to think about that. The only thing they need to think about is the bill.

            There are many differences, but if I explain each one, maybe I will write a book.
