Answer 1

1. There are two important limits of controlling for confusing by the Mantel-Haenszel formula: one, if there is more than a single confounder, the application of this formula is laborious because of the higher number of strata and demands a relatively large sample size, and two this method requires continuous confounders to be constrained into a limited number of categories thus potentially generating residual confounding.

2. Examination of the Moro makes me recognize that their culture was strong compared to other religions.

3. Strong governance, good economy, cultural disconnects not strong socio-political environment and lack of peace and order.
