Now, proceed to answer the following questions:
Question1:
a. Using a map, identify the three countries that generated the highest total profit for Global Superstore in 2021.
b. For each of these three countries, determine the three products with the highest total profit. Provide the names of the products and their corresponding total profit.
Question 2: Determine the three subcategories with the highest average shipping cost in the United States.
Question 3:
a. Evaluate Nigeria’s profitability (total profit) for 2021 and compare it to other African countries. Use a map to present your findings.
b. Investigate potential factors contributing to Nigeria’s poor performance, such as shipping costs and average discount. You can utilize a map or a bar chart, or both, to illustrate your analysis.
Question 4:

a. Identify the least profitable product subcategory in Southeast Asia. Assume that Southeast Asia includes Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar (Burma), the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. Hint: No date restriction in this question.

b. Determine if there is a specific country in Southeast Asia where Global Superstore should discontinue offering the identified subcategory. Use a map to support your answer. Hint: Use a subcategory filter for tables and compare countries’ average profit and total profit to find out the answer.

Question 5:
a. Determine the city with the lowest average profit (considering only cities with at least 10 orders) in the United States. Use a map to present your findings. Hint: No date restriction, use average profit to find out the answer. Make sure that you have selected Country, State and City all together to create your map. You are also required to convert Order ID to a measure and filter to include at least 10 distinct orders.
b. Explain why the average profit in this city is significantly low. Hint: One approach to answer this question is to by taking a closer look at the distinct orders and
their respective profit (using a new sheet). Once you have dragged the (sum) profit measure to the Columns pane and the Order ID

Sample solution

Dante Alighieri played a critical role in the literature world through his poem Divine Comedy that was written in the 14th century. The poem contains Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. The Inferno is a description of the nine circles of torment that are found on the earth. It depicts the realms of the people that have gone against the spiritual values and who, instead, have chosen bestial appetite, violence, or fraud and malice. The nine circles of hell are limbo, lust, gluttony, greed and wrath. Others are heresy, violence, fraud, and treachery. The purpose of this paper is to examine the Dante’s Inferno in the perspective of its portrayal of God’s image and the justification of hell. 

In this epic poem, God is portrayed as a super being guilty of multiple weaknesses including being egotistic, unjust, and hypocritical. Dante, in this poem, depicts God as being more human than divine by challenging God’s omnipotence. Additionally, the manner in which Dante describes Hell is in full contradiction to the morals of God as written in the Bible. When god arranges Hell to flatter Himself, He commits egotism, a sin that is common among human beings (Cheney, 2016). The weakness is depicted in Limbo and on the Gate of Hell where, for instance, God sends those who do not worship Him to Hell. This implies that failure to worship Him is a sin.

God is also depicted as lacking justice in His actions thus removing the godly image. The injustice is portrayed by the manner in which the sodomites and opportunists are treated. The opportunists are subjected to banner chasing in their lives after death followed by being stung by insects and maggots. They are known to having done neither good nor bad during their lifetimes and, therefore, justice could have demanded that they be granted a neutral punishment having lived a neutral life. The sodomites are also punished unfairly by God when Brunetto Lattini is condemned to hell despite being a good leader (Babor, T. F., McGovern, T., & Robaina, K. (2017). While he commited sodomy, God chooses to ignore all the other good deeds that Brunetto did.

Finally, God is also portrayed as being hypocritical in His actions, a sin that further diminishes His godliness and makes Him more human. A case in point is when God condemns the sin of egotism and goes ahead to commit it repeatedly. Proverbs 29:23 states that “arrogance will bring your downfall, but if you are humble, you will be respected.” When Slattery condemns Dante’s human state as being weak, doubtful, and limited, he is proving God’s hypocrisy because He is also human (Verdicchio, 2015). The actions of God in Hell as portrayed by Dante are inconsistent with the Biblical literature. Both Dante and God are prone to making mistakes, something common among human beings thus making God more human.

To wrap it up, Dante portrays God is more human since He commits the same sins that humans commit: egotism, hypocrisy, and injustice. Hell is justified as being a destination for victims of the mistakes committed by God. The Hell is presented as being a totally different place as compared to what is written about it in the Bible. As a result, reading through the text gives an image of God who is prone to the very mistakes common to humans thus ripping Him off His lofty status of divine and, instead, making Him a mere human. Whether or not Dante did it intentionally is subject to debate but one thing is clear in the poem: the misconstrued notion of God is revealed to future generations.
