Guinea+Dillon+Fritz

Conakry, Guinea and Augusta, Maine Conakry, Guinea and Augusta, Maine do not have a lot in common. Augusta, Maine is not known for a lot of stuff. Conakry, Guinea is known for blood diamonds. They both are situated right by an ocean. Conakry has a diamond industry which means that people are forced into slave labor. Also, if the slaves try to escape they will be severely beaten and/or often killed. Augusta is a quiet place. All in all not a lot of bad things happen there Differences between Augusta and Conakry: The population in Conakry is around 2,000,000 and the population in Augusta is around 19,000. In the winter in Conakry its average temperature is 80°F and the average temperature in Augusta in winter is 30°F. In Guinea they mine for diamonds and/or blood diamonds. Temperature in both cities in the summer is around 90°F. Both Conakry, and Augusta are located right by an ocean. Both of the cities are capitols. I don’t think that the diamond mining in any part of Africa will stop soon but I hope it does. I think that the way that Augusta is today I think it’ll be that way for a long time.
