What country was negatively affected by diamonds?
In general, the continent of Africa has been most negatively affected by diamonds.Angola probably ranks highest as a country per se most negatively affected by diamonds, because most Angolan diamonds are alluvial -- found in the landscape or in the water -- having been washed into a place distant from their source, a volcanic pipe. This means that many people -- thousands -- use primitive tools to dig looking for diamonds, which are spotted when the soil dug is sifted. Individual workers may earn a subsistence wage, but they are often forced to pay for protection or their diamonds taken from them by armed rebels.Diamonds from Angola have funded civil unrest since 1974.Other countries similarly affected include Liberia, Cote d'Ivorie, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republic of the Congo and Zimbabwe.You can read more, below.

What would be the first organism affected by overfertilization of farm and land with nutrient run-off and why?
The first organism affected would be the algae living in local water-ways. The fertilizer run-off causes an algal bloom. This algal bloom uses increased amount of oxygen taken from the water therefore the first organism negatively affected would be organisms in the water surviving on oxygen. More than likely it would be the earthworms under the rows of crops; they would be affected almost immediately after the water hits the ground.
