Is tannin used to make ink?

Iron gall ink is a black ink made from iron salts and tannic acids, typically from oak tree galls. But I do not believe tannin was ever used. However one could make an ink like material based on iron salts and tannin.

However such inks are very bad, being acidic they attack the paper and can eventually "burn" holes in the paper whenever the ink was applied. There are much better inks and inks of a wide range of colors now.

What role does unity play in a country's desire for progress?

Unity plays a pivotal role in a country's utmost desire for progress. There is a familiar proverb 'Unity in diversity'.

What is colloquial language?

This would be the languge, words and phrases used in casual situations by the people, as opposed to formal language.

Colloquial refers to ways things are said in a local area, that might be different to other parts. It is a local slang. An example of colloquial diction in a literary piece can be seen in Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn, where the main characters Huck and especially Jim (the black slave) speak using slang.

A really good example would be to look at the way different people refer to carbonated drinks - in the US, we can tell where you are from by how you ask for your beverage! People in the northeastern and middle states call it "pop," while people in the western states say "soda." People in the south ask for a "coke" or for "dope!"

What is Cultural Integration?

The term cultural integration means the process of one culture gaining ideas, technologies and products of another and so this means that this culture will seem to be integrating into the other.

If you want the cleanest, most straightforward definition of corporate culture, think of it as corporate personality.

Usually, when we think of personality, we think of the individual person. That's a good place to start. Think for a minute or two. And identify three things that, in your opinion, represent very fundamental, core aspects of your personality. You might conclude, "I'm a true extrovert," or "I'm a wallflower." Perhaps you see yourself as highly aggressive, or as having a very understated personality. Maybe integrity is a hallmark of your makeup as a human being, or possibly you take pride in your genuine empathy for others.
