History of the City: Island Garden City of Samal

One of the immediate challenges Valley residents faced after the war was where to house the large number of incoming veterans who either never went back home after the war or moved here shortly thereafter. One emergency solution, by means of a $300,000 state grant, was Airport Village. Temporary, war-surplus style housing was brought in on trailers and set on piers on an unused plot of ground by the airport, just outside of San Jose. But this effort hardly made a dent in the housing shortage.

Slowly, permanent villages rose up all over the world and it became possible for families to bear more children making population surged. Within these new villages it became doable for the civilians to specialize in the sort of work they could do best. In permanent settlements economies based on trade were cultivated, languages were formed, and so did cultures. (Document #8)

Agricultural spread out by diffusion and colonization. It was resisted by migration of agricultural peoples.

However, the Spaniards brought things over such as Horses and cattle. By having cows and oxen the agriculture was able to boom. These animals made it easier to produce more crops, while at the same time helping the indigenous people save energy. These large animals were able to make the work easier while at the same time increase output. The Spaniards brought over wheat, barley, various fruits and vegetables, olive oil, and wine. The most overlooked thing brought, were slaves. Slaves brought a huge need for labor while at the same time provided diversity.

Along with the introduction of livestock, rice and sugar were also brought to the New World from the Old world. Rice and sugar created a better food supply similar to the livestock. The sugar and rice added a variety to the food already in the New world. The introduction of rice in the New World enabled many farmers to grow it in the New World and transport it back to the Old World, creating a great profit.

Agriculture was such a prominent part in every civilization since the beginning of time. It was a way for humans to be one with their land for it gave them means to survive. As agriculture became much more recognized in Africa, “cultivators and herders displaced many of the hunting, gathering and fishing peoples who previously inhabited Saharan Africa.” (Bentley,384) With the progression of new technology; iron axes, adzes, and hoes were created, and revolutionized agriculture on their land. The introduction of bananas from sea lanes became popular in Africa and increased the supply of food that was available. Likewise for Medieval Europe, cultivation on Europe grounds allowed more room for agricultural techniques, the utilization of developed tools and technologies, and the institution of new crops. Similar to Africa, population pressure rose and space for more agriculture became necessary. Beans were important to the diets of Europeans as were the bananas to African diets. They also dug ponds to raise fish which in turn led to new

The exchange of plants and animals transformed the way of life for many. Foods that has never been seen or eaten became daily consumption in most of their diets, which gave the opportunity for more people to thrive. “The Spanish introduced livestock, wheat, and sugar…” (Foner 24). People in the new world chose to cultivate old world crops, such as wheat and apples into different forms of crops.

The sort of changes that farming brought were: people benefiting from a further steady and dependable food source, settling down and building vaster communities, concentrating on contemporary skills (architecture, arts and crafts, social organization), and elaborated societies eventually emerging.

more tourists arriving in the state. And this all led to gourmet restaurants and bigger hotels to

Aztecs had a large population so in order to feed them they maximized their production of food. They drained swampy areas and created artificial islands. Farmers grew food on islands to supply population.

Since the food was plentiful, the population expanded. Soon, advanced cities developed for large area trade. As social standing

Development: In the development stage, the number of tourist increases at an accelerated rate and may quickly equal or exceed the number of permanent local residents (Butler, 1980). This rapid growth is triggered when large tourism groups controlling tourism retail, lodging and

Looking back to the previous government systems in different periods in Philippine history, we can see that our present government system is somehow shaped and patterned from the previous systems that prevailed in our country. Pre – historically we have seen how they established their government and basically, we can say that it is far more primitive than the present system that we have. However, the basic principles like the consultation of the datus to the elders can somehow be seen in the present by the presence of political advisers where our president consults aside from the members of the senate and the congress. The barangay system

When talking about Philippine Administrative System, first thing that comes to mind is about the government and its political divisions in the country. It is about the nations’s political hierarchy such as the central government, provinces, municipalities and barangay. However, these divisions and subdivisions can be attributed to our past history. It is not a plant that simply blooms from nowhere. The Philippine Administrative System is dynamic, shaped and evolved through time. From Spanish colonial period to the present administration, the mode of bureacracy is adopted, patterned and improved depending on the needs and wants of the administration. Needs, in terms of the welfare of the society. Wants,
