Lines of latitude and longitude are imaginary lines used to locate points on the Earth's surface. Latitude lines run east-west and measure the distance north or south of the equator, while longitude lines run north-south and measure the distance east or west of the prime meridian (which runs through Greenwich, England). Together, these lines create a grid system that allows for precise navigation and location identification on Earth.

River valleys in South Asia, such as the Indus and Ganges rivers, are heavily populated due to fertile land for agriculture, access to water for irrigation, transportation routes, and historical development of civilizations. The rivers provide essential resources for sustenance and economic activities, leading to dense populations settling in these regions for thousands of years.

The Rocky Mountains and the Appalachians Mountains are the two largest mountain systems in North America.

The largest mountain range in North America are the Rocky Mountains.

The second Largest mountain range is the Appleachians.

Antarctica's water is mostly fresh, with large ice sheets that hold about 70% of the world's fresh water. However, there are also areas of salty water in the form of sea ice and surrounding the continent.

There are rivers with unusual colors due to natural factors like mineral deposits or algae, creating colors such as red, green, or blue. For example, the Rio Tinto in Spain is known for its red hue from iron deposits, while the Peyto Lake in Canada has a turquoise color due to light reflecting off rock flour in the water.

The Himalayas is a mountain range located on the continent of Asia. They are not a continent.

There are several famous natural landmarks in the United States. Perhaps the most famous is the Grand Canyon.

Nepal's flag is shaped like two triangles. See Sources and related links for a picture.

Arkansas has a total area of approximately 137,732 square kilometers.

Switzerland is a landlocked country that has practiced neutrality for over 700 years. This neutral stance has allowed Switzerland to avoid involvement in wars and conflicts, and it remains a key aspect of its foreign policy.

The Atlantic Coastal Plain extends from Florida to New York along the eastern seaboard, while the Gulf Coastal Plain stretches from Florida to eastern Texas along the Gulf of Mexico. The Atlantic Coastal Plain is characterized by sandy beaches, barrier islands, and estuaries, while the Gulf Coastal Plain features marshes, swamps, and bayous. Additionally, the Atlantic Coastal Plain has a higher population density and more urban development compared to the Gulf Coastal Plain.

An urban setting refers to a developed area where there is a high population density and infrastructure such as buildings, roads, and services. Urban settings typically have commercial, residential, and industrial zones, and are characterized by a mix of diverse activities and lifestyles.

No one knows my namestake like I do (except Crystallography majors) and in reality obsidian is not quite classified as a type of crystal at all, as its composition is too complex to comprise a single mineral, it's usually just considered a mineraloid.

Nairobi, because of its high altitude, is cooler than the rest of Kenya, which can be quite hot. Especially in the evening Nairobi can get a bit chilly, so you'll want to bring a light jacket or sweater. Mombasa, which is right on the Indian Ocean, is distinctly warmer than Nairobi and can be quite humid.

I am not sure that all history must be treated geographically, but certainly geography does play an important role in what happened to a country or a population. For example, the availability of lakes, rivers, and oceans made it possible for ancient people to travel and to find food. The presence of certain kinds of minerals, or the presence of certain plants, or whether soil was good for growing food, all of these things are factors. Were there mountains that prevented people from getting from one place to another? Was there a harsh climate that made it difficult for people to survive? Knowing about the geography of a time and a place helps us to understand how people lived, where they went, and how successful their journeys were.

Mud volcanoes can be dangerous due to the potential for sudden eruptions of mud, gas, and rocks. They can also emit toxic gases like methane and hydrogen sulfide, posing a risk to nearby communities. However, with proper monitoring and precautions, the risk can be minimized.

Granite is an example of a porphyritic igneous rock. It contains large crystals (phenocrysts) within a fine-grained matrix. The phenocrysts are usually made up of minerals such as quartz, feldspar, and mica.

People have changed the environment through deforestation by clearing large areas of forests for agriculture, urban development, and logging. This has led to habitat loss, soil erosion, loss of biodiversity, and disruption of the carbon and water cycles, impacting the local and global climate.

For the early visitors from Europe it was a wild and wonderful panorama of mountains, coastlines and bays occupied by exotic peoples and animals with soils ready to produce crops for export. It was a Heaven on Earth needing only the power of the British Empire to prepare it for a rightful place as a part of that Empire.
