El Salvador
El Salvador (; , meaning " The Saviour"), officially the Republic of El Salvador ( es, República de El Salvador), is a country in Central America. It is bordered on the northeast by Honduras, on the northwest by Guatemala, and on the south by the Pacific Ocean. El Salvador's capital and largest city is San Salvador. The country's population in 2022 is estimated to be 6.5 million.

However the Viceroyalty of Mexico had little to no influence in the daily affairs of the isthmus, which was colonized in 1524. In 1609, the area was declared the Captaincy General of Guatemala by t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Natán Rivera
Natán Armando Rivera Alas (born 12 December 1998) is a Salvadoran athlete specialising in the pole vault. Still a youth athlete, he won the gold medal at the 2015 NACAC Championships although in rather unusual circumstances. His rivals having much better personal bests than Rivera, who managed to jump 4.70 meters, entered the competition much higher but none of them actually cleared the bar. This left him as the sole athlete to record a valid jump and the gold medalist. This victory earned him a spot at the 2015 World Championships in Beijing, where, however, the opening height of 5.25 metres, way above his then PB of 4.70 metres, proved too much for him. His current personal bests in the event are 5.35 meters outdoors (Austin, TX 2019) and 5.20 metres indoors (Houston, TX 2019). Both are national records National Records was a record label that was started in New York City by Albert Green in 1945 and lasted until early 1951.

The men's pole vault at the 2015 World Championships in Athletics was held at the Beijing National Stadium on 22 and 24 August.

At the end of that round, only six jumpers remained and three others, Shawnacy Barber, Piotr Lisek and 2011 winner Paweł Wojciechowski also had no misses. Returning champion Raphael Holzdeppe also was one of the six to clear 5.80, including several misses. At the next height, 5.90, Lavillenie cleared the bar easily, but in the wrong position. Each time he knocked it off on his way down. Barber, the National High School Record holder and NCAA Champion from the University of Akron, cleared on his first attempt. On his last attempt Holzdeppe cleared 5.90 to stay in the co ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

2015 World Championships In Athletics – Women's 100 Metres Hurdles
The women's 100 metres hurdles at the 2015 World Championships in Athletics was held at the Beijing National Stadium on 27 and 28 August. Summary Brianna Rollins of the United States entered the competition as the defending champion. Coming into this meet, on paper, this was an American event as eight of the top ten athletes in the world were Americans, but even with the returning champion, only four could compete here. The returning silver medalist, reigning Olympic Champion and two-time winner Sally Pearson could not return due to a tragic accident in Rome, so the best the world could offer was returning bronze medalist Tiffany Porter. But the hurdles require execution. Two of the Americans disappeared in the semi-finals, Kendra Harrison by false start, 2008 Olympic Champion Dawn Harper-Nelson falling flat at the second hurdle. Making the finals were Rollins, after a tight battle with Andrea Ivančević and world #1 Sharika Nelvis, along with Porter and Jamaica's vers ...

Nations At The 2015 World Championships In Athletics
A nation is a community of people formed on the basis of a combination of shared features such as language, history, ethnicity, culture and/or society. A nation is thus the collective identity of a group of people understood as defined by those features. Some nations are equated with ethnic groups (see ethnic nationalism) and some are equated with affiliation to a social and political constitution (see civic nationalism and multiculturalism). A nation is generally more overtly political than an ethnic group. A nation has also been defined as a cultural-political community that has become conscious of its autonomy, unity and particular interests. The consensus among scholars is that nations are socially constructed and historically contingent. Throughout history, people have had an attachment to their kin group and traditions, territorial authorities and their homeland, but nationalism – the belief that state and nation should align as a nation state – did not become a promi ...
