What is the rise of cities?

The rise of cities refers to the process of urbanization, where more people move from rural areas to live in urban areas. This trend is driven by factors such as industrialization, economic opportunities, and improved infrastructure in cities. As cities grow, they become centers of commerce, culture, and innovation, shaping the social and economic landscape of a region or country.

Why does it rain more in cities?

Cities often have more impervious surfaces like concrete and asphalt, which don't absorb water. This leads to increased runoff, which can contribute to more frequent and intense rainfall events in cities. Additionally, the heat generated by urban areas can enhance the formation of rain clouds through a process called the urban heat island effect.


Why do cities build high rise buildings?

There are several reasons. One is that in most cities, real estate prices are very, very expensive, and it is hard to buy a large lot in the middle of the city, so you often need to build up, rather than out, in order to have enough room. Another is that there is a higher demand for space, so if you build more space (by constructing tall buildings), you can make a lot of money from renting that space to others.


Why the worlds largest cities now are outside the development continents?

The largest cities are now located outside of the development continents due to various factors, such as economic opportunities, urbanization trends, and population growth in these regions. Many developing countries are going through rapid urbanization and experiencing high population growth rates, which leads to the emergence of large cities in these regions. Additionally, changes in global economy and infrastructure development have also contributed to the shift of largest cities to outside the development continents.
