Language and religion of australia 08 09
British colonization of Australia beginning in 1788 had a significant impact on establishing the English language and spread of Christianity in Australia. England established a penal colony in New South Wales and transported over 170,000 convicts to Australia between 1788 and 1823, spreading the English language. Additional British settlers during gold rushes in the mid-1800s further increased the English-speaking population. While some other languages were introduced, English became and has remained the dominant and official language due to Britain's colonization. Christianity was also introduced by European colonists in the late 1700s and spread as various Christian denominations like Anglican, Methodist, and Catholic established churches in Australia throughout the 1800s. Today, most Australians identify as Christian although
Economy of australia
Australia has a mixed economy where businesses decide what and how to produce goods and services based on supply and demand, while the government approves what is produced and regulates production procedures. It relies heavily on natural resources and exports minerals, wool, wheat, meat, and wine. It also imports machinery, computers, crude oil and petroleum. Australia has a highly educated population with a literacy rate of 99% and low unemployment rate of 5.1%.

The document discusses several key health issues in Africa including famine, AIDS, and malaria. It explains that famine occurs due to both natural and human-made factors like drought, wars, and poverty. Poverty exacerbates health problems in Africa by creating conditions where diseases can spread more easily. Malaria and AIDS disproportionately impact the poor in Africa who cannot afford prevention and treatment. Political instability and conflict also contribute to health crises by weakening economies and disrupting infrastructure and services.
The_scramble_for_africa
The document summarizes the colonization of Africa by European powers between the 15th-early 20th centuries. It describes how Portugal, France, Britain, and other countries gradually established colonies along the coast in the 1400s-1700s by founding trading ports. In the late 1800s, the Scramble for Africa began as European nations rapidly divided up the interior of the continent at the Berlin Conference in 1885 due to growing imperialism and rivalry over Africa's resources. By 1900, Europe had colonized almost all of Africa, radically reshaping the political boundaries and causing lasting negative impacts through exploitation and ethnic division, though some new infrastructure was also established.
Tiananmen square
In 1989, over one million pro-democracy protestors occupied Beijing's Tiananmen Square, inspired by economic reforms and movements toward democracy in Eastern Europe. The protestors demanded more political freedom in China. The country's leaders repeatedly asked the protestors to leave, but they remained. In June 1989, the Chinese government forcefully ended the protests by sending tanks and troops to Tiananmen Square, killing many protestors in what became known as the Tiananmen Square Massacre.

Governments and economies_of_africa_one_to_use
The document summarizes key aspects of governments and economies in several African countries. It provides details on the type of government, year of independence, and rights of citizens for Kenya, South Africa, and Sudan. Kenya and South Africa have multi-party democracies, while Sudan is effectively a one-party military dictatorship. It also outlines some of the economic bases and challenges for Nigeria, South Africa, and Egypt. Poverty, unemployment, corruption, and disease have held African nations back from further economic development despite some natural resources. Regional cooperation organizations have aimed to promote stability and growth.
China sim1
China was formerly ruled by dynasties. Sun Yat Sen established the Republic of China in 1911. He was opposed by the Kuomintang party led by Chang Kai Shek. Mao Zedong defeated Chang and established communist rule, founding the People's Republic of China in 1949. He instituted controversial policies like the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution, and was chairman until his death in 1976.
_21st_century
Many African countries faced problems after independence from European rule in the 1980s. Key issues included disease, poverty, drought, poor education, civil wars, ethnic conflicts, and genocide. Diseases like HIV/AIDS, malaria, and famine have had devastating impacts and remain major problems today. Civil wars erupted in countries like the Democratic Republic of Congo, Sudan, and Rwanda due to ethnic tensions. Overall, independence brought freedom but also new hardships as countries struggled with health, economic, and political stability challenges.
Japan, korea, vietnam government and economics
The document discusses the division and history of North and South Korea after World War 2. It summarizes that North Korea allied with the Soviet Union and became a communist state while South Korea allied with the US and became capitalist. This led to conflict, as the Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea. Though UN troops intervened and pushed North Korea back, China joined and a stalemate ensued, dividing the country along similar borders. Today tensions remain high as South Korea thrives economically while North Korea struggles under its authoritarian regime.
Apartheid
The document discusses the history of apartheid in South Africa. It describes how the Dutch first settled in South Africa and were later joined by British settlers who fought with the native Afrikaners and Zulus for control of the land. In the 20th century, the white government instituted apartheid, a system that legally enforced racial segregation and discrimination. Apartheid restricted the rights of non-whites and designated different areas and facilities for different races. After many years of resistance, apartheid was officially ended in 1994 when South Africa held its first multiracial democratic election and Nelson Mandela became president. However, the new South Africa still faces ongoing challenges related to economic inequality and other social issues.
Nafta notes
NAFTA allows Canada, the US, and Mexico to trade freely without tariffs. Maquiladoras are Mexican factories built near the border that employ cheap Mexican labor. American business owners would generally support NAFTA as it allows them to move factories to Mexico for cheaper labor while still accessing US markets tariff-free. However, American workers would oppose it as they risk losing jobs to Mexican factories. The environmental impact is also a concern as increased industrialization could worsen pollution across North America.
4 factorsofeconomicgrowth
This document discusses the four main factors that influence economic growth within a country: investment in human capital through education and training; investment in capital goods like factories and machinery; natural resources available within the country; and entrepreneurship in starting new businesses. It explains how each of these factors can contribute to a higher gross domestic product and overall economic growth, which leads to a better standard of living for citizens of that country.
Canada's environmental issues
The Great Lakes are an important part of North America that provide water for many uses but are threatened by pollution. Factories near the Great Lakes have contributed to acid rain through emissions, harming water quality and ecosystems. In 1972, Canada and the US created an agreement to limit pollution and protect the Great Lakes. The Canadian Shield contains much of Canada's mineral and timber wealth but over-extraction has threatened resources, leading to legislation requiring environmental assessments of new projects.

The document summarizes the colonization of Africa by European powers between the 15th-early 20th centuries. It describes how Portugal, France, Britain, and other countries gradually established colonies along the coast in the 1400s-1700s by founding trading ports. In the 1800s, Europeans increasingly sought Africa's natural resources and used imperialism to divide the continent. The Berlin Conference of 1884-1885 formalized the colonial boundaries, ignoring Africa's political structures. By 1900, only Ethiopia and Liberia remained independent as Europe had colonized the rest.
Japan's government and economy
After WWII, the Allies led by General Douglas MacArthur oversaw Japan's transition to a democratic government with a new constitution. The constitution established a parliamentary democracy with an emperor as ceremonial head of state. It guaranteed human rights and extended voting rights to women. Japan's economy was rebuilt with US aid and it became one of the wealthiest nations in the world with a highly educated workforce.
Japan modern history
1) The document discusses Japan's history in the 20th century, focusing on events leading up to and during World War 2 in Asia. It describes Japan's increasing military aggression in mainland Asia and conflicts with the United States.
2) It outlines the US bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki with atomic weapons in August 1945 after Japan refused to surrender.
3) Japan surrendered on August 15, 1945, ending World War 2. The US then occupied Japan and oversaw reforms that established a democratic government and constitution.
Middle east geography ppt
The document summarizes the key geographical features of the Middle East region. It describes the three peninsulas - Sinai, Arabian, and Anatolia - that extend into the region. It then outlines several important rivers that flow through the Middle East, including the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers, which join to form the Shaat al-Arab waterway before emptying into the Persian Gulf. The document also mentions the Jordan River, Dead Sea, Strait of Hormuz, Suez Canal, and large deserts like the Syrian Desert and Rub' al Khali. The climate of the Middle East is generally very hot and dry, though coastal areas have more moderate temperatures.
Confucianism
The document provides an overview of the life and teachings of Confucius. It states that Confucius was born in 551 BCE to a poor but noble family in China and died in 479 BCE. As a teacher and government official, he developed the philosophy of Confucianism which focused on human relationships and virtue. Confucianism teaches that social order stems from individuals cultivating good character through education and fulfilling their roles within five key relationships of ruler-subject, father-son, husband-wife, older brother-younger brother, and older friend-younger friend. Confucius' most influential work is the Analects which provides guidance on practical ethics and good governance.
European economies
The document compares the economies of the United Kingdom, Germany, and Russia. The UK has a mixed market economy and is one of the world's leading industrial powers, with major industries including machinery, vehicles, chemicals, and food processing. Germany has the largest economy in Europe and is third largest in the world, with industries like iron, steel, chemicals, vehicles, and machinery. Russia has a mixed economy moving from communist command to market principles; it has a large natural resource base but exploitation is challenging due to climate and infrastructure.
Deformation
The video discusses the different types of forces that can act on and deform the Earth's crust, including compression, tension, and shearing. Compression causes squeezing and folding of rocks to form structures like anticlines and synclines. Tension causes pulling apart and thinning of the crust to form rift valleys. Shearing causes twisting and tearing of rocks. Different rock types and environmental conditions influence whether the crust folds or faults under geological forces.
Volcanoes
Volcanoes form where magma reaches the Earth's surface through openings called vents. There are several types of volcanoes defined by their eruptive activity and structure. Cinder cones have short eruptions that build steep slopes from ejected cinders. Shield volcanoes have long-lasting eruptions that spread lava over large areas to form broad dome shapes like Hawaii's Mauna Loa. Composite volcanoes like Italy's Mount Etna are made of layers from violent and quiet eruptions. Volcanoes can be classified as active if currently erupting, dormant if not currently erupting but historically active, or extinct if no known eruptions in history. Most volcanism occurs along zones of
Seismic waves
Deep underground, rocks are under constant pressure until the strain becomes too great and the rocks suddenly break, releasing seismic waves. These waves travel outward from the hypocenter in three types - P waves which push and pull, S waves which move sides to side, and L waves which cause surfaces to bob up and down. When recorded by a seismograph, the first indication of an earthquake is typically the P waves, followed by larger S waves, with surface L waves arriving last.
Earthquakes
An earthquake is caused by the sudden movement of parts of the Earth's crust and results in shaking and trembling of the ground. There are over one million earthquakes each year, with around twenty having the potential to cause severe damage. Earthquakes are caused by faults in the Earth's crust, such as the San Andreas Fault in California where the land west of the fault moves north and the land east moves south. Underwater earthquakes can generate destructive tsunamis. The focus is the depth below the surface where the earthquake occurs, and the epicenter is directly above on the surface. Seismographs detect seismic waves that travel out from the epicenter, including fast P waves and slower S waves.
Deformation
The video discusses the different forces that act on the earth's crust and how they cause deformation through various mechanisms. Compression causes squeezing and increases density, tension causes pulling and decreases density, and shearing causes twisting. These forces result in fracturing, faulting, and folding of rocks in the crust. Fractures are cracks, faults are cracks with lateral movement, and folds are bends in rock layers. Anticlines are upward folds and synclines are downward folds. Various factors like temperature, pressure, rock type, and rate of force application determine whether rocks fault or fold when subjected to deformation.
European governments
The document summarizes the government and political systems of the United Kingdom, Germany, and Russia. It describes that the UK has a Parliament with two houses, the House of Commons and House of Lords, and citizens elect members of Commons while Lords are inherited titles. Germany is a federal republic with a Chancellor as head of government and largely ceremonial President. Russia transitioned to a federal republic after the Soviet fall, with a dominant presidential system and a two-chamber Parliament.
Plate tectonics review #2
The document discusses different types of plate boundaries, including divergent boundaries where plates move apart, such as at mid-ocean ridges which form undersea mountain ranges as oceanic crust spreads away from the ridge. It also describes transform boundaries where plates slide past each other in opposite directions, such as at the San Andreas Fault in California.
Plate tectonics review
The plates are moving at a very slow rate of between one to ten centimeters per year. In some areas plates are moving together through a process called convergence, while in other areas they are moving apart. There are three main types of convergent boundaries: continental-continental, continental-oceanic, and oceanic-oceanic. At convergent boundaries, one plate dives beneath the other through subduction, which can cause volcanic activity at the surface.

Systems of government powerpoint (unitary, confederation, federal)updated 2010
Systems of government powerpoint (unitary, confederation, federal)updated 2010North Gwinnett Middle School
This document discusses different systems of government and how power is distributed in each. It begins by asking the reader to identify the different levels of government where they live. It then explains that governments are organized to protect citizens and manage conflict. There are different types of governments like democracies, republics, and monarchies. Geographers study the types of governments and how power is distributed through systems. The main systems are unitary, confederation, and federal. Unitary governments have one central power. Confederation governments give some power to members. Federal governments share power between a central and state/provincial governments. Diagrams and country examples are provided to illustrate each system.Continental drift
Alfred Wegener first proposed the theory of continental drift, which suggested that the continents were once joined together in a super continent called Pangaea before drifting apart to their current locations. Wegener's theory was initially rejected because he could not explain the driving force behind continental movement. Evidence that later emerged in support of continental drift includes: matching fossil and rock formations between continents, matching climate zones in pole and equatorial regions, and magnetic pole reversal patterns in ocean floor sediments. This evidence helped prove that continents have shifted positions over time.
Sea floor spreading
1) The Mid-Ocean Ridge system circles the Earth along the ocean floor and is over 56,000 km long. It forms at divergent plate boundaries where new oceanic crust is continually being formed.
2) Scientists use sonar to map the ocean floor and study its features like the Mid-Ocean Ridge. Sonar bounces sound waves off underwater objects to image the seafloor.
3) Evidence like magnetic stripes in ocean crust and samples dug from the seafloor support the theory of sea floor spreading, where new crust forms at ridges and spreads out over time.
Earths structure
The document discusses the four main layers of the Earth - the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. It explains that the crust is the outermost layer and includes both continental and oceanic crust, with oceanic crust being denser. The mantle is below the crust and contains hot, dense rock. The outer core is a liquid layer surrounding the solid inner core, where extreme pressure causes iron and nickel atoms to remain solid.
Geologic time magazine
This document outlines the requirements for a group project where students work with a partner to create a magazine. Each person must complete two 20 point activities and one 10 point activity by certain checkpoint dates. They must also turn in their completed magazine by October 15th, which can include different formats like articles, interviews, or political cartoons, but each format can only be used once and one activity must use a longer writing format.
Geological time scale
The document summarizes the geologic time scale, which is divided into eras, periods, and epochs based on fossil evidence showing changes in Earth's organisms over its 4.56 billion year history. The largest divisions are eras, including Precambrian, Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and current Cenozoic. Each era is characterized by the dominant lifeforms and events of that time period. The geologic time scale helps break up Earth's history into more manageable chunks for study.
Fossils
Fossils are the remains or traces of prehistoric life found in sedimentary rocks. The type of fossil formed depends on how and where the organism died and was buried. Fossils can be unaltered remains like teeth and shells, or altered remains that have changed over time through processes like petrification or carbonization. Trace fossils provide indirect evidence of prehistoric life through things like tracks, burrows, and coprolites. Fossils are important for interpreting ancient environments and changes over time.
Relative and absolute dating
The document discusses methods for dating geological materials and events. Relative dating methods, like the law of superposition and index fossils, are used to determine the sequence of events but not calculate specific ages. Absolute dating methods, such as radiocarbon dating, are used to determine specific numerical ages by measuring radioactive decay. Radiocarbon dating works by comparing the ratio of carbon-14 to carbon-12 in once-living materials, as carbon-14 decays at a known rate. Together, relative and absolute dating methods provide information about the timing of geological events and processes.
Paleontology and uniformitariansm
Paleontology is the study of past life through the examination of plant and animal fossils. Paleontologists study fossils and the environments they formed in to piece together details about past ecosystems. The principle of uniformitarianism, first developed by James Hutton in 1788, holds that the same geological processes shaping Earth today have operated throughout its history. This theory helped establish that Earth is much older than previously believed. Relative dating methods like the law of superposition and use of index fossils allow paleontologists to determine the sequential order of geological events and changing life forms without knowing exact time periods.
