Geographical Analysis

In this Geography GCSE controlled assessment project, I will be focusing on rivers and I have chosen a hypothesis to prove that erosion is making an impact on the Loughton Brook Rivers. My hypothesis is, “The river Loughton brook becomes wider and deeper due to erosion as it moves downstream”. I will be investigating if erosion takes place downstream in the river. I will investigate if hydraulic action has an impact. I will study about vertical erosion, lateral erosion, Cross profile and hydraulic action.

During this unit of human geography, I have learned so much about religions, ethnicities, and even culture. For example, I learned about the religion Islam and how it is a religion of peace just like the Hindu religion and as well as the Buddhist religion and much more others. These religions and some others have much in common whether they accept it , these religions and some more are all peaceful religions and all teach good morals and principles to the followers, everyone following footsteps of good people and their good actions and/or deeds. When I was reading chapter 7 ( ethnicity) I learned that ethnicity also has to do with culture and that the chapter before that one, we were reading about ( folk culture) and how it much ties in with

Scale- relationship between a specific place in the world, and the Earth as a whole.

The Five Themes of Geography are: Location – Absolute points on a map or grid or Relative to where something may be; Place – The physical and/or human characteristics of a locations; Human/Environment Interactions – How humans have impacted the landscape or environment; Relationship between places Movement – How humans interact on the earth (i.e. how they communicate over distance (short or long)) and Regions – a unit of space that has commonalities defined by physical, human and environmental geography. The Explorers of the New World may have not known what the Five Themes of Geography were but they quickly learned. Of the five themes the ones that they all took advantage of was the physical Location and Place as they learned to navigate

Ideologically, the socialist state is portrayed as a figure that supports citizens’ interest equally and is open and comprehensive towards their needs. Individuals can trust in making the best decisions in everybody’s interests. The government makes it its goal to carry out socialist values and makes

Cronulla is a beachside suburb in southern Sydney, it is located 34.0574° S, 151.1522° E which is 26 kilometres south of the Sydney CBD (see figure 2). It is governed by the Sutherland Shire Council. Cronulla’s coastal environment is on the Kurnell Peninsula, which is made up of a tombolo. A tombolo is a sand spit connecting a rocky outcrop or island to the mainland. So this forms a barrier between Botany Bay and Bate Bay. The two areas of study visited were Wanda Beach and the Greenhills Beach development.

In the text they used ‘pretty bloody extraordinary’ to describe the project the Paterson is undertaking, the words give off an air of passion to the project. The writer gives off the impression that the whole project is extraordinary with words ‘grand, epic and phrases like ‘not a single soul’.

For my theme, I chose the word change because I feel that throughout this chapter, each civilization has gone through changes as time went on. Western Asia went through changes when it was split into Babylonia and Assyria. The two zones became different and accomplished things on their own after. But in the Mediterranean, after many people settles and migrated from many place of the world, the Mediterranean became more successful because of its goods and success in trading. Also in Israel, when the Bible became more popular and there were more followers of Yahweh, many customs were changed. For example, monotheism was one of the changes the Israelites went through, because before, polytheism, the worship of more than one god, was more popular and well-known.

Did you know that the country of Germany had the most feared, fascist government in the world? Well it did, but that was many years ago. Now it has a new government that is more democratic. It was Nazi Germany now it is the Federal Republic of Germany. It did have a Fuhrer now it is a President and parliament. The Germans’ have had several forms of government that didn’t work and now they have the democracy they currently use. The German government currently uses a Federal system with a Parliamentary head that is Democracy based.

C.A country likely constitutes a formal political region because within its boundaries certain conditions of nationality, law, and political tradition prevail.

Human activity is influenced by two opposite forces, globalization and local diversity. Globalization is the trend of increasing interaction between different societies. Local diversity is the trend of a society focusing on local development and growth. Maps are used to display real world places, human interactions and physical data on a two-dimensional surface

The global mobility of human resources between countries is a key driving force of the currently ongoing economic and regional development all over the world. It is indisputable that the immigration of international labour force would exert many positive and important impacts on the economic, cultural and social structure of both migrant-receiving and migrant-sending countries. Actually, the trend of temporary and permanent immigrants increasing in some western countries began to gain momentum in recent years. Organization for Economic Cooperation Development (OECD 2004) reports indicated that there were more than 1 million new immigrants in the United States in 2001 and 2002, increased by 25% from 2000; in some European countries

Research Question: Is Switzerland’s direct democratic government more efficient than the united states representative government?

When the Federal State was founded in 1848, Switzerland began to industrialize. Foreigners from neighboring countries came to Switzerland for work. Post World War II labor shortages in Switzerland brought more immigrants into the country (Ruedin, Alberti, D'Amato, 2015). Switzerland has been shaped immigration, and how the immigrants from neighboring countries settled have in separate regions (Appendix: Map 1). Throughout Swiss history, immigration has been a highly debated topic. Several immigration laws, decrees, and people’s initiatives have been put forth to control immigration (Ruedin, Alberti, D'Amato, 2015). Currently, Switzerland is in the midst of a refugee crisis, which is creating more debate
