Introduction

The digital revolution has transformed our lives and societies to an unprecedented extent, creating significant opportunities in the economy while also giving rise to certain challenges. The development of the digital economy is one of the priority areas for leading countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Japan. In recent years, a new wave of development in business and the social sphere has been driven by a new generation of digital technologies, including artificial intelligence, robotics, and wireless communication technologies.

New technologies can make a substantial contribution to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals; however, the expected positive outcomes may not always be fully realized. If we aim to harness the full social and economic potential of digital technologies, it is essential to urgently enhance cooperation among states in order to prevent unintended consequences. In our country as well, special attention has begun to be paid to the development of this sector. In his Address to the Oliy Majlis on December 28, 2018, the President of the Republic, Sh. Mirziyoyev, proposed the implementation of the “Digital Uzbekistan – 2030” program by 2030.

Analysis of the Relevant Literature

The concept of the digital economy was first introduced in the 1990s during the period of economic crisis in Japan by a Japanese professor. First of all, it should be noted that the digital economy consists of a chain of interrelated production and management processes, the integral element of which is the exchange of information carried out through inter-chain digital technologies (human-to-human, machine-to-machine, via cloud systems, and between data centers).

The main objectives of the digital economy program have been highlighted in the literature. The digital economy represents a form of economic activity in which data in digital form serve as the key factor in production and service delivery. By processing large volumes of information and analyzing the results of such processing, more efficient solutions are implemented in various areas, including production, service provision, technologies, devices, storage, and product delivery, compared to traditional systems.

In other words, the digital economy is an activity associated with the development of digital computer technologies, encompassing online service provision, electronic payments, e-commerce, crowdfunding, and other related fields. In our view, the digital economy is an economic activity carried out and managed through digital technologies under conditions of scarce economic resources. The main challenge facing any economic system is resource scarcity, and in the digital economy, primary attention should also be directed toward addressing this issue.

Research Methodology

In the article, comparative–evolutionary analysis is used to study the role of digital platforms in the global economy. Statistical and mathematical methods are applied to analyze the market capitalization of companies occupying higher and lower positions, as well as the development trends of transnational companies based on digital platforms. Statistical grouping and comparison methods are used to assess Internet coverage across regions. In addition, the level of Internet traffic usage in the development of the digital economy is explained on the basis of dynamic analysis.

Analysis and Results

The following advantages of the digital economy are identified; it is estimated that labor productivity may increase by up to 40%:

the digital economy has the capacity to collect, use, and analyze a very large amount of information (digital data);

• the emergence of new forms of employment delivered through online platforms;

the emergence of new forms of employment delivered through online platforms;

changes in the commercial infrastructure for specialized services as a result of digital transformation.

changes in the commercial infrastructure for specialized services as a result of digital transformation.

 The export of industrial products is increasingly dependent on ICT products and services;

New technologies, especially artificial intelligence, will inevitably bring significant changes to the labor market, including the disappearance of jobs in certain sectors and the creation of large-scale opportunities in others;

The digital economy also introduces new risks, ranging from cybersecurity breaches to facilitating illegal economic activities and threats to personal privacy. It continues to develop rapidly based on the capacity to collect, utilize, and analyze massive amounts of machine-readable data (digital data) covering almost everything. For example, global Internet Protocol (IP) traffic, as a proxy for data flow, increased from 100 gigabytes (GB) per day in 1992 to 45,000 GB per second in 2017, marking only the early days of a data-driven global economy. By 2022, global IP traffic is projected to reach 150,700 GB per second.

Cost is formed when the provided data is converted into digital intelligence and monetized for commercial use. Digital platforms provide mechanisms for multiple parties to interact and collaborate online. There are transactional and innovation platforms. Transactional platforms are multi-sided markets that support exchanges between different parties through online infrastructure. These are operated by major digital corporations such as Amazon, Alibaba, Facebook, and eBay.

  Moreover, digital network-supported platforms, such as Uber, Didi Chuxing, or Airbnb, have become the primary business model for those who adopt them. Innovation platforms, such as operating systems (e.g., Android or Linux) or technology standards, provide an environment for developing applications and software packages, as well as producing code and content.

Over the past decade, numerous digital platforms based on data-driven business models have emerged worldwide, replacing existing industrial sectors. The advantage of these platforms is evident: seven out of the eight leading global companies by market capitalization rely on platform-based business models.

 The economic geography of the digital economy does not reflect the traditional North–South divide. It is largely driven by developed and consistently advancing countries, primarily the United States and China. For example, these two countries account for 75% of all patents related to blockchain technologies, 50% of global expenditures on the Internet of Things (IoT), and over 75% of the global market for widely used cloud technologies. Remarkably, they also represent 90% of the market capitalization of the world’s 70 largest digital platforms. Europe’s share is only 4%, while Africa and Latin America account for just 1%.

These are “super platforms” – Microsoft, followed by Apple, Amazon, Google, Facebook, Tencent, and Alibaba – which together constitute two-thirds of the total market value. Consequently, in many areas of digital technological development, the rest of the world, especially Africa and Latin America, lags significantly behind the United States and China. Some of the existing trade frictions reflect the pursuit of global dominance in the latest technologies.

The value of the digital economy, as well as the creation and capture of related value, faces several challenges. First, there is no universally accepted definition of the digital economy.

 In the ICT sector, computer services constitute the largest component, accounting for 40% of added value. Secondly, in developing countries, reliable statistics on the main components and scale of this sector are lacking. Although several initiatives have been undertaken to improve the situation, they are insufficient and hinder the rapid development of the digital economy.

The size of the digital economy varies between 4.5% and 15.5% of global GDP. Regarding the added value in information and communication technologies (ICT), the United States and China together account for nearly 40% of global GDP. The share of this sector in GDP is highest in Taiwan (China), Ireland, and Malaysia.

The United States dominates the global computer services industry; its share of industrial added value in this sector exceeds the combined share of the nine largest economies. Among developing countries, India has the largest share in this regard.  

  Digital platforms are becoming increasingly significant in the global economy. The total value of platform companies with a market capitalization exceeding USD 100 million was estimated at over USD 7 trillion in 2017, a 67% increase compared to 2015. Some global digital platforms have achieved very strong market positions in specific sectors.

 Facebook accounts for two-thirds of the global social media market and is considered the leading social media platform in over 90% of the world economy. Amazon holds approximately 40% of global online retail activity, and its Amazon Web Services (AWS) also captures a similar share of the global cloud infrastructure services market. In China, WeChat (owned by Tencent) has over one billion active users, and together with Alipay (Alibaba), its payment solution has nearly dominated the entire Chinese mobile payment market. Additionally, Alibaba accounts for approximately 60% of China’s e-commerce market.

Alphabet (Google) and Microsoft have invested in telecommunications equipment by acquiring Motorola and Nokia, respectively. Large platforms have also made major acquisitions in retail, advertising, marketing, and commercial real estate sectors. The functioning of the digital economy depends on coordinated policies across many countries.

Data privacy and data security require particular attention. Laws and regulations are necessary to combat the theft of personal data, establish rules on how personal information is collected, used, transferred, or deleted, and ensure that business models based on the digital economy generate societal benefits. The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which came into effect in May 2018, represents a globally significant, comprehensive approach to data protection.

Digitalization affects different countries in varying ways, and individual governments require policy frameworks to regulate the digital economy in order to achieve the objectives of diverse national legal and policy agendas.

 Conclusion and Recommendations

 Digital transformation has become increasingly important today, particularly in the context of the ongoing pandemic. Recognizing the role of the digital economy in national economies and its significance for global economic development, it is advisable to implement the following measures:

 Study and adopt more comprehensive support mechanisms from countries that are advancing in the digital economy;

Establish the regulatory and legal framework for the digital economy in our country;

Develop the necessary infrastructure for the digital economy, prioritizing the connection of regions with limited or no Internet access;

Improve the system for training specialists and professionals required for the digital economy;

Promote joint research initiatives among governments, civil society, academia, the scientific community, and the technology sector to identify innovative solutions;

Ensure the rational use of new technologies to redefine digital development strategies, anticipate future trends in globalization, strengthen partnerships, and enhance intellectual leadership.

Abstract

This article discusses the importance of medical and biological physics in modern healthcare, emphasizing its role in diagnostics, therapy, and preventive medicine. It highlights how physical principles underlie many medical technologies and treatments, from imaging and radiation therapy to biomedical engineering. Understanding medical and biological physics helps healthcare professionals detect diseases early, enhance treatment effectiveness, and apply advanced technologies more efficiently.

Keywords: medical physics, biological physics, diagnostics, imaging, radiation, healthcare technology

Introduction

In recent decades, medicine has evolved rapidly through the integration of physical sciences. Medical and biological physics study the physical processes within living systems and their applications in diagnosis and treatment. Technologies such as X-ray imaging, ultrasound, laser therapy, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are all based on fundamental principles of physics.

Medical physics enables physicians to visualize internal organs non-invasively, measure physiological parameters accurately, and develop safer, more effective therapies. Therefore, physics forms the scientific foundation of modern medicine, bridging the gap between theory and clinical practice.

Methods

This article was developed using analytical and comparative methods to explore the relationship between physics and medicine.

Literature Review: Recent national and international scientific studies on medical and biological physics were analyzed.

Comparative Analysis: The efficiency of modern diagnostic techniques (MRI, X-ray, ultrasound) was compared based on physical mechanisms.

Systematic Approach: The connections between physical laws and physiological processes were examined, emphasizing their impact on diagnostics, treatment, and innovation.

The study utilized academic publications from 2019–2024, WHO reports, and materials from the European Society of Radiology.

Results

The findings reveal that medical and biological physics play a central role in every branch of modern medicine.

Radiology applies electromagnetic radiation for imaging bones and tissues.

Ultrasound diagnostics use sound waves to visualize soft tissues safely.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) employs magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed anatomical images.

Laser therapy accelerates tissue repair and reduces pain.

These technologies demonstrate how physics enables accurate diagnosis, effective treatment, and continuous improvement in healthcare quality.

Discussion

Medical physics has become a key factor in the modernization of healthcare. Artificial intelligence combined with physical diagnostic tools — such as automated image analysis in MRI or CT scans — represents a major step toward precision medicine.

Furthermore, medical physicists ensure radiation safety, equipment calibration, and quality assurance in hospitals. Meanwhile, biological physics investigates processes such as ion exchange in cell membranes, blood flow hydrodynamics, and bioelectrical activity in the nervous system. Understanding these mechanisms supports the development of new pharmaceuticals and medical devices.

The integration of physics into medicine not only improves clinical outcomes but also fosters innovation and interdisciplinary collaboration between engineers, doctors, and researchers.

Conclusion

Medical and biological physics are the cornerstones of modern medicine. They provide the theoretical and practical basis for diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases using scientific precision. By mastering the laws of physics, healthcare professionals can utilize advanced technologies effectively and safely, enhancing both patient outcomes and the overall quality of care. Thus, including medical physics in medical education remains an essential component of training future physicians and researchers.

English poetic adaptation (song-style):
I carry all my sorrow in my heart,
I take my longing everywhere I go.
When I hear your voice, my soul still shakes,
Please don’t cry from missing me, my mom.
If I hide my love deep down inside,
If I fail to say how much I care,
Please don’t say, “My child has me forgot,”
Please don’t cry from longing, mom, my dear.
If I spread my pain before your eyes,
I know your heart could never bear it all.
That is why I keep it locked inside,
Please don’t cry for me at all, my mom.
For me you gave up everything you had,
Knowing this, my conscience won’t stay still.
Far away, I carry all your pride,
Please don’t think of me so much, my mom.
Think of yourself, at least just once or two,
Your whole life’s been “my child” night and day.
I know I am the heartbeat in your chest,
But please, just once, think of yourself… my mom.

Nigora Nurullayeva has actively participated in numerous competitions, contests, projects, and webinars to date. She is the proud recipient of multiple local and international certificates, reflecting her dedication, initiative, and commitment to continuous learning. I often write some poems and stories.

I will not shed my tears, believe me, not a day,

My painful wounds will fade and drift away.

Until my final breath, I will not cry,

If once you say to me: “Do not, my dear.”

My heart is dressed in happiness alone,

No crowns or thrones before my eyes are shown.

You do not know—these moments are my bliss,

If once you whisper softly: “Do not cry.”

My tears will dry at once within my sight,

My sorrow will be chased away that night.

The scent of joy will rise from deep inside,

If once you gently say: “Do not cry.”

Perhaps you do not love me as I do,

But please, remember this—do not undo.

No world of countless realms could feel such cheer,

If once you tell my heart: “Do not cry.”

My name is Alisherova Hurmatoy. I was born on October 21, 2007, in Toshloq district of Fergana region, Republic of Uzbekistan. I graduated from Secondary School No. 4 in the same district with a GPA of 4.82. In 2024, I was recommended for admission to Fergana State University, majoring in Primary Education, on a state-funded (grant) basis.

In 2025, I became the holder of a 100% proficiency certificate in the Uzbek Language and Literature. Currently, I am both a student and a teacher, teaching native language and mathematics to students.

My life motto is: “Stopping for one day is equal to losing years.”

Speaking about my creative journey, I am a student of the poet Abdulla Boqiy Kenjaboyev, and I have been writing poetry since the age of 7–8. It has been ten years since I started writing poems. At present, I am working on publishing a book of my own authorship.

Behind every poem I write lie my mother’s prayers, my teachers’ trust, and a great deal of my own effort. A person does not become a poet by chance; it is said that poetic talent is a gift granted only to the chosen ones. I am truly happy to be among those chosen, and through this talent, I continuously strive to raise the name of Uzbekistan to even greater heights.

“TIME ITSELF IS THE FAIREST EDITOR”

Today’s guest is the distinguished young Uzbek poet, journalist, and translator Jakhongir Nomozov — a member of the Azerbaijan Journalists’ Union and the World Union of Young Poets, the Uzbekistan correspondent for Azerbaijan’s “Butov Azerbaijan” newspaper, a recipient of numerous international literary awards, and a devoted promoter of literature and cultural dialogue.

E. M: Esteemed Jakhongir, do you tell us about the beginning of your passion for the literary arts and where your first inspirations originated?

J. N: I believe that every human has an innate inclination and inner need for literature and art. For some, this need awakens early; for others, it emerges through certain life trials. For me, love for literature was strong from childhood. Nature, goodness, love — these are my main sources of inspiration. Rivers, sometimes calm, sometimes rushing; the infinite sky — all of these turned into poetry in my soul. Innocent childhood memories, the highs and lows of life, joys and pains — all shaped me not only as a poet but also as a human. Poetry is not a chosen profession for me, but an inner necessity, a spiritual need.

E. M: Is literature becoming a closed system where the “original voice” matters less than the right connections?

J. N: A very painful yet important question… Unfortunately, history shows that true talents are not always appreciated in their time. Many great creators were ignored during their lives, and their worth was recognized only after death. This bitter truth remains relevant today. In contemporary literary circles, sometimes a work’s inner power, artistic depth, or spiritual weight is overshadowed by the author’s family name, status, or connections. This makes the path harder for talented creators without influential support, slowing their voice. Yet, I still believe in the justice of words. True words withstand the test of time. A work unrecognized today will find its reader tomorrow. Literature is a marathon, not a sprint. The most important thing for a poet or writer is conscience and sincerity. Connections may give temporary advantage, but talent is eternal.

E.M: Is literature becoming a closed system where the “original voice” matters less than the right connections?

J. N: Partially, unfortunately, yes. Today, in some literary spaces, it seems that who opens the door matters more than the voice itself. This contradicts literature’s natural laws, as literature has never thrived in isolation — it always feeds on the hearts of the people. 

Yet, I firmly believe that literature’s true domain can never be fully closed. It finds its voice through invisible paths. Even if platforms are closed today, time is the most just editor. A creator with a true voice will eventually be heard, because fake connections crumble, but genuine words endure.

E.M: How can an emerging author, lacking establishment support, break the wall of editorial indifference?

J.N: First of all, a young writer must not lose their inner independence. Editorial indifference is often not due to lack of talent, but fear of a bold voice, since new ideas always disrupt comfort. A new creator must understand that every rejection is not a stop sign but a direction marker. If one door closes, find another. Today, digital space, translations, international platforms, and independent publishing exist. 

E. M: Is there a risk that this familiarity will lead to a homologation of style, punishing those who dare to innovate?

J. N: Certainly, the danger exists. In environments dominated by connections, courage is punished and flatterers rewarded. Consequently, literature can become a mechanical organism instead of a living being. Yet, history shows that the greatest literary breakthroughs came precisely from “incompatible,” “unsuitable,” and “uncomfortable” voices.

Stylistic uniformity may create temporary calm, but innovation always breaks through that calm. I believe true creators fear neither punishment nor recognition; their courage is measured by inner truth.

E. M: Why is art often seen today as a “hobby” and not as a profession that requires sacrifice?

J. N: Today, the world measures productivity by speed and value by profit. Art, especially literature, is seen as less “serious” because it does not immediately generate financial gain. Yet art is one of the most complex and responsible forms of human labor. Behind every line of a poet are years of accumulated knowledge, spiritual struggle, inner conflict, and moral responsibility. History shows us: Dostoevsky lived in debt, Kafka’s works went largely unnoticed in his lifetime, Van Gogh sold only one painting. They treated art not as a hobby, but as a matter of life and death. Today, the question “How do you earn?” shows a lack of understanding, not a denial of art.

E.M: In a world of “quick numbers,” have we lost the ability to recognize slow talent, the one that takes time to understand?

J.N: Unfortunately, yes. Today, talent is often measured by visibility: views, likes, quick spread. True talent does not always appear instantly; it often matures in silence.

 Literary history gives many examples: Navoiy’s works were not written for a single day’s hype, Kafka and Borges were not overnight successes. Understanding their works requires time, preparation, and inner maturity. Today’s “fast-number” culture sidelines complex, slowly digested works. As a result, society is accustomed to quick consumption, which dulls discernment. Recognizing talent is not algorithmic; it’s a matter of cultural literacy.

E. M: What is the impact of digital gratuity on the perception of the value of literary work?

J.N: Digital free distribution is a double-edged sword. On one hand, it democratizes access: a young poet in a remote area can share their voice globally. That is positive. On the other hand, “everything is free” devalues literary labor. Texts become mere consumable content, read and forgotten. The work of a creator over years can feel equal to a single post. Literature demands not speed, but contemplation. If society forgets the value of time and effort, art becomes shallow.

E.M: Can a society call itself civilized if it doesn’t invest in less commercial but more visionary creative minds?

J.N: No, such a society cannot be called cultured. Culture is not today’s profit, but tomorrow’s future. If society supports only quickly consumable products, it trades its future for short-term gain.

E. M: The creative today must also be a “marketing expert”: how much does this take away from pure creation?

J.N: Creativity requires inner calm and concentration. If a poet or writer thinks about “how many likes” rather than their own words, their creative world becomes conditional and artificial. Shakespeare never worried about audience numbers; his world was linked to characters, words, and spirit. Today, algorithms favor short, digestible, viral content, pressuring creators to bypass their inner voice. The result: artistic depth declines, spiritual sincerity weakens. Yet, if a creator remains true to their voice, marketing is only a tool, not a master.

E. M: Is social media really atrophying the public’s ability to read complex works like novels or poetry collections?

J.N: Yes, social networks can weaken the ability to read complex works like novels or poetry collections. They encourage rapid consumption, shifting attention to short blocks. 

Multi-layered works demand attention, patience, and internal rhythm, which social media reduces. Yet, these platforms can also attract new audiences. A young reader may discover a full book after seeing a short excerpt online. Thus, social media can both empower and weaken, depending on conscious engagement.

M. E: Is the algorithm the new literary critic?

How does it influence what we write?

J.N: Yes, algorithms have become an “uncertain critic,” shaping literary taste. They favor short, easily read, and widely spread texts. Creators may lose their personal voice, adapting to algorithmic rules. Instagram poems or Twitter micro-thoughts gain visibility, but complex philosophical works appear lower. This creates internal pressure: “what should I write?” An algorithm is not a critic; it is an interest gauge. True literary critique depends on time, philosophy, context, and depth. Adapting to algorithms increases visibility, not artistic truth.

E. M: Digital Ego Fragility: How Does Like Addiction Undermine Writers’ Resilience?

J.N: Likes, reposts, follows are stimulants for today’s creators but make the ego fragile. If a writer ties their value to external approval, rejection triggers depression, doubt, and creative blocks. 

A young poet expecting 1000 likes but receiving 100 may feel inadequate. Motivation then becomes artificial, prioritizing likes over genuine voice.

E. M: Imposter Syndrome: How Much Does Comparison Affect the (Often Apparent) Success of Others?

J.N: Imposter syndrome forces creators to undervalue themselves. Comparing to famous writers can intensify internal critique, blocking creative flow. Creators must follow their own path and voice.

E. M: Does hyper-connection prevent us from finding the inner silence necessary for great writing?

J.N: Constant connectivity and rapid information flow disrupt inner calm, necessary for great literature. Complex philosophical works require deep thought and concentration.

E. M: Are fear of offending or “cancel culture” limiting the authors’ sincerity?

J. N: Yes, fear of offending or “cancel culture” limits sincerity. Creators restrict themselves, weakening creative honesty. True literature must remain free; self-censorship makes it artificial.

E.M: What impact have organizations like “World Talents” and “World Union of Young Turkish Writers” had on its growth?

J. N: These organizations not only provided a platform, but also expanded my spiritual space.

 Every creator gains energy from attention, recognition, and encouragement; I too was inspired. Such external support fuels my future successes. Creativity cannot be measured by awards or membership; it is measured by the rise of thought, imagination, worldview, and finding one’s full voice. These experiences enriched my work, broadened my perspective, and shaped my voice.

E. M: What differences do you have between your role for “Butov Azerbaycan” and the Turkish magazine “SIIR SARNICI”?

J.N: Both serve the same goal: strengthening literary ties, promoting intercultural harmony and friendship — the main mission of my creative life. Through this, not only do connections form, but each creator finds a chance to share their voice globally.

E. M: Which of her many journalistic and literary affiliations was the most significant to her?

J.N: Each of my journalistic and literary roles opened a door to my heart. Most importantly, international projects allowed me to engage with people sincerely as a poet and journalist. Creativity and journalism exist not in solitude but as bridges between humans. This feeling makes all my roles meaningful.

E. M: He has received prestigious awards such as the “Abay” Medal and the “Guzel Alania Award”. Which of these has the deepest meaning for her?

J.N: Among prestigious awards, the “Abay” medal holds the deepest spiritual meaning. Abay symbolizes humanity, knowledge, philosophy, and literature. This award reminds me: creativity is not merely wordcraft, but enriching the human spirit. The “Guzel Alania Award” honors international recognition and dialogue, making both important, yet the Abay medal touches the heart most deeply.

E. M: How did your vision influence the “Amir Temur Fund Commemorative Badge”?

J.N: The “Amir Temur Memorial” inspired me profoundly. Temur represents not just empire-building, but a center of culture and spirit. This award is not just recognition, but dialogue with history and values. I aim to remain a creator true to myself, inspired but not imitating historical figures.

E.M: Tell us about his books: “Rebels in My Heart,” “Sacred Space,” and “Song of Awakening.” What themes unite them?

J. N: My books share themes of love, humanity, spiritual awakening, and the pure voice of the heart. 

They are guides in the journey of self-discovery, not mere stories.

E. M: Does he change his creative approach between poetry, journalism and translation?

J.N: Poetry, journalism, and translation complement each other. Poetry expresses inner states; journalism develops observation and analysis; translation opens doors to other hearts, building bridges between languages and cultures. 

The principle is always the same: sincerity and fidelity to one’s inner voice.

E. M: If he had to choose only one field of action for the rest of his life, which one would he choose?

J.N: If I had to choose one path for life, I would choose poetry. Poetry is the purest, truest, most beautiful expression of the human heart. Journalism and translation are valuable tools, but poetry awakens the soul and nourishes the heart. A single line can contain a whole world, history, and future aspiration.

E.M: His connection to Azerbaijan and patriotism: how does this theme shape his work?

J.N: Though I never lived in Azerbaijan, I feel close to its history, culture, literature, and people. Patriotism in my work coexists with universal human values. Literature and love know no borders.

E. M: At the end of this dialogue, what advice and messages would Jakhongir like to leave to those who read his thoughts, so that they can be welcomed as seeds of peace in the soul?

J.N: I want to tell readers: every word can plant a seed in the heart. Plant it with love, sincerity, and honesty. If seeds of peace, love, and conscience grow, the world responds in kind. Each person’s inner world is a garden. Nurture it with books, poetry, art, and sincere dialogue. Most importantly, preserve humanity; spread love and let your inner voice always remain true. Through that voice, humanity preserves its peace, culture, and future.
