La geography of latin america
Latin America is comprised of Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, and South America. It contains diverse geographic features like the Amazon River, Andes Mountains, Atacama Desert, Panama Canal, and countries such as Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Chile, and others. The document lists the countries and geographic areas that make up Latin America.
Geography Of Latin America
This document provides a brief overview of the geography of Latin America, dividing it into three main regions - Mexico, Central America, and South America. It lists the countries located in Central America between Mexico and South America, as well as some of the major geographic features found in Latin America, including mountain ranges, rivers, deserts, and seas bordering the region.
Government terms
There are three main types of governments: autocracy, oligarchy, and democracy. Autocracy is rule by one person, like a dictator, while oligarchy involves rule by a small group. Democracy gives citizens a say through voting and most modern democracies are republics where citizens elect representatives. Democracies can be presidential, with citizens voting directly for the head of state and government, or parliamentary, where the legislature selects the head of government. Governments provide structure, laws, services, and defense for their countries. Power is shared in different ways between federal, unitary, and confederate systems.
Columbian exchange
The document discusses the Columbian Exchange that occurred between Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas following Christopher Columbus' voyage in 1492. Key aspects of the exchange included:
1) The introduction and spread of new domesticated animals, plants, and crops between the continents, such as Europeans bringing horses, cattle, and wheat to the Americas and adopting crops native to the Americas like maize, potatoes, and tomatoes.
2) The devastating impact of diseases brought from Europe, which killed 90-95% of the Native American population due to lack of immunity, resulting in severe depopulation of indigenous societies across the Americas.
3) The long-term effects of the exchange on global populations, trade,
Fall of aztec inca empires
1. Hernan Cortes, a Spanish conquistador, arrived in Mexico in 1519 with a small force of 550 men but was able to defeat the vast Aztec Empire through tactical advantages like horses, guns, and alliances with neighboring tribes.
2. Cortes captured the Aztec emperor Montezuma and took control of the capital city Tenochtitlan, but a rebellion forced the Spanish to flee. An outbreak of smallpox further weakened the Aztecs, allowing the Spanish to destroy their capital in 1521.
3. Francisco Pizarro similarly conquered the Inca Empire in Peru in the 1530s with only 160 men through surprise attacks and capturing the emperor Atahualpa,
La independence movements
The document discusses three important leaders in Latin America's independence movements: Toussaint L'Ouverture, Simon Bolivar, and Miguel Hidalgo. Toussaint L'Ouverture led Haiti's independence movement and fought to free slaves, though he died in prison before Haiti gained independence. Simon Bolivar liberated several South American countries from Spanish rule and was successful during his life, though he did not fully unite South America. Miguel Hidalgo initiated Mexico's independence movement but was executed; Mexico achieved independence 11 years later.
Government terms
There are different forms of government that determine how power is distributed and how citizens participate. Autocracies concentrate power in the hands of one person like a dictator, while oligarchies give power to a small group. Democracies allow citizens to have a say through voting. There are two main types of democracies - parliamentary systems where the legislature selects the leader, and presidential systems where citizens directly elect both the head of government and head of state. Governments can also be categorized based on how power is shared, such as federal systems that divide power between a central and local governments, unitary systems that concentrate power in one central authority, and confederations where independent states voluntarily work together.
Unit 4b review game
The document appears to be a review game about events in Europe between World War I and the end of World War II. It contains multiple choice questions about the Russian Revolution, the Treaty of Versailles, the rise of Hitler and the Nazis in Germany, and the division of Europe after WWII. Key events covered include Lenin taking power in Russia, the terms imposed on Germany by the Treaty, Hitler gaining popularity by remilitarizing Germany, and the postwar occupation of Eastern Europe by the Soviet Union.

La cuban revolution
The Cuban Revolution occurred in 1959 when Fidel Castro overthrew the authoritarian ruler Fulgencio Batista. Batista's Cuba had a wealthy elite but most Cubans lived in poverty with little access to land, healthcare, or education. The revolution aimed to remove Batista, establish democracy, and gain independence from heavy U.S. influence. When Castro took power he transformed Cuba into a communist state, seizing private property and businesses. This led the U.S. to impose an embargo and sour relations. Under Castro, Cuba established a command economy reliant on the Soviet Union and citizens saw restrictions on civil liberties, though gains were made in healthcare, education, and literacy.

Prince henry the navigator
Prince Henry the Navigator sponsored voyages of exploration along the west coast of Africa in the mid-1400s to find a sea route to Asia for trade, though he never sailed on the expeditions himself. He established a school to develop new navigation and shipbuilding techniques to make the voyages possible. Under his direction, Portuguese explorers developed the caravel, a new lightweight ship design that allowed them to sail further and map the African coast over many voyages, advancing geographical knowledge of the region.

The effect of british colonization on aboriginal people[1]
Between 1788 and 1900, the Aboriginal population of Australia declined by 90% due to the introduction of European diseases and loss of land and resources during British colonization. Diseases like smallpox, measles and influenza spread rapidly among Aboriginal communities and killed many people. As settlers took fertile lands, Aboriginal people lost access to their traditional lands and means of hunting and gathering food. Already weakened by disease, the loss of resources further threatened Aboriginal survival, forcing them to either resist European encroachment and risk violence, or become dependent on settlers.
Why did Europeans explore the world?
Europeans explored the world during the Age of Exploration for several key reasons: to find a sea route to Asia to access lucrative spices more easily; to obtain gold, silver, and precious stones to fund expensive wars; to expand their geographical and scientific knowledge of distant lands; to spread Christianity to new regions; and to establish larger colonial empires and claim more territory and resources.
physical geography of south america
The Andes mountains run along the western coast of South America and are the longest continental mountain range and highest range outside of Asia. The Amazon rainforest covers most of the Amazon Basin in South America and is a moist broadleaf forest. Patagonia is a sparsely populated region at the southern end of South America shared by Argentina and Chile, comprising the southern Andes mountains as well as deserts, steppes, and grasslands to the east.
South American Geography
The Andes mountains run the entire length of South America. They contain unique ecosystems like the páramo between the forest line and snow line. South America also contains the world's driest desert (the Atacama), the highest commercially navigable lake (Lake Titicaca), and extensive grasslands like the Llanos and Pampas. The longest rivers are the Amazon and Paraná, which flow through rainforests containing tremendous biodiversity and through some of the largest hydroelectric plants. Isolated tepui mountains in Venezuela also host unique wildlife.

Ga doe gandhi_lesson
Gandhi's belief in non-violent protest shaped India greatly. His leadership of non-violent movements against British rule influenced India to gain independence. Non-violent protests, including strikes and civil disobedience, put pressure on the British to leave. As a result of Gandhi's influential advocacy of non-violence, India was able to achieve self-rule through non-violent means rather than armed conflict.
Ss7 h3.a independence_of_india
Nationalism in India grew in the 1800s as the British imposed unfair economic and political policies on Indians. This led groups like the Indian National Congress and Muslim League to call for independence. Mohandas Gandhi advocated non-violent civil disobedience, which put pressure on the British economy. After World War 2, Britain granted India independence in 1947, but religious disputes led to the partition of India and Pakistan.
Ss7 h3.a independence_of_india
Gandhi led non-violent protests in India against British rule through civil disobedience and the famous Salt March. Nationalism grew in India in the 1800s as the British exploited the nation's resources and people. Gandhi's tactics of non-compliance with unfair laws through boycotts and refusal to pay taxes put economic pressure on Britain and eventually led to India gaining independence in 1947 after World War II, though the country was partitioned along religious lines into India and Pakistan.
Ethnic groups
Ethnic groups are defined by shared language and culture, often including shared values and religion. Religious groups are defined by a common belief system. Literacy rates and poverty rates are closely linked - countries with higher literacy rates tend to have lower poverty rates and better standards of living. Literacy rates also affect economic development, with illiteracy limiting job opportunities and higher literacy allowing for more skilled jobs.

Unit 5 posttest b study guide answers
The document contains a posttest with multiple choice questions and answers about independence movements in India and Vietnam, key events and leaders related to decolonization, and political and economic systems like nationalism, communism, and the Cold War. Specifically, it asks about Gandhi's nonviolent protests, leaders like Ho Chi Minh, the partitioning of Korea and Vietnam after WWII, and conflicts like the Korean and Vietnam Wars that arose due to Cold War tensions between the US and Soviet Union.
Independence in vietnam
China controlled Vietnam for nearly 1000 years until 939. After independence from China, Vietnam thrived as an advanced culture until the late 1800s when France colonized it. The end of WWII marked the beginning of Vietnam's fight for independence from France under Ho Chi Minh. It took 8 years of fighting but the French were defeated in 1954. The US then entered to fight on the side of South Vietnam against Ho Chi Minh's North Vietnam, but ultimately withdrew in 1975 after failing to contain the spread of communism.
Trade barriers
This document discusses trade barriers such as tariffs and quotas that countries impose on imports. Tariffs are taxes on imported goods that raise their prices, making domestic goods more competitive. Quotas limit the quantity of imports allowed, creating shortages that also raise prices of imported goods. While trade barriers protect domestic industries and jobs, they ultimately hurt consumers by reducing competition and choice, and raising the costs of goods. Most economists agree that free trade is better for economic growth.

There are three basic types of economic systems: traditional, command, and market. Most textbooks say the most common system worldwide is a mixed system on a continuum between pure market and pure command. Israel has a market system oriented economy focused on high tech and services. Saudi Arabia has a command system focused on oil with government involvement in other industries. Turkey has moved toward more private enterprise but still has some government direction, placing it farther left on the continuum than Israel or Saudi Arabia.

Entrepreneurship involves starting new businesses to meet market needs or opportunities. Successful entrepreneurs help economies grow by creating new products/services, jobs, and tax revenue. While risky, entrepreneurship drives innovation.

This document discusses the four factors of production that influence economic growth: investment in human capital, investment in capital goods, natural resources, and entrepreneurship. It explains that the presence or absence of these four factors determine a country's gross domestic product. Nations that invest in education and training will have a more productive workforce that can boost technological advances and GDP. Economic growth is measured by increases in GDP over time and is influenced by a country's resources and investments in physical and human capital.

A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。乌龟和王八贼头贼脑的倒也逗人喜爱日上三竿时山娃总爱窜进自家瓜棚里跟小伙伴们坐着聊天聊着聊着便忍不住往瓜田里逡巡一番抱起一只硕大的西瓜用石刀劈开抑或用拳头砸开每人抱起一大块就啃啃得满嘴满脸猴屁股般的红艳大家一个劲地指着对方吃吃地笑瓜裂得古怪奇形怪状却丝毫不影响瓜味甜丝丝的满嘴生津遍地都是瓜横七竖八的活像掷满了一地的大石块摘走二三只爷爷是断然发现不了的即便发现爷爷也不恼反而教山娃辨认孰熟孰嫩孰甜孰淡水
