Question 2 (b):
Struggland is a less developed country, and from the population pyramid above I am able to tell you about the past, present (currently shown), and future of this country. If I were to project the population pyramid of the past history of Struggland, it would look similar to what it does now. You can tell because if you look at the middle and top ranges of this graph, it makes an even smaller pyramid: therefore one can assume that this developmental pattern continues as the time rewinds, having the smallest percent of populations for the oldest ages and the biggest percent at the age of kids. This ‘pyramid’ structure that makes up the past and present population pyramids of Struggland is common among less developed countries because economy of LCD’s relies on farming. To maintain a farm one needs workers which are very expensive. By having large families, they can have their children work for free them. These large families lead to the pyramid shown, because there are many people making up the age of the kids, with fewer as the age ranges increase. The estimated Future of Struggland looks more like a tall house or a rectangle with a smaller triangle on top. As Struggland develops and moves its way through the stages of the demographic transition, its economy will change. Instead of being based off of farming, it will advance to more industrial jobs because of the industrial revolution (or advancement of technology). Families that are moving their
Of the three theories on how the Great Pyramid was built, in descending order of acceptability, the most suitable theory is Clifford Wilson’s followed by Joseph Davidovits’ and Erich Von Däniken’s argument. Clifford Wilson’s theory is the best because he illustrates how the pyramids were built and provides the evidence to prove his theory, however; this is unlike Joseph Davidovits’ theory because Davidovits does not fully answer questions that arise concerning his theory. The three theories have similar points, but contain very different ideas on the construction of the Great Pyramid. This is obvious in Clifford Wilson’s argument where he is repeatedly disproving Von Däniken’s theory that the “gods” created the pyramids, whereas in
Why were the pyramids so important to the history of Egypt? Pyramids housed dead, important pharaohs and is now a main source of income through tourism. Pyramids were representations of Ancient Egyptian religion, and also benefit many people by learning more about it.
Many things like high unemployment, different cultural traits and the spread of cities have created two totally different countries. The comparison between the two countries further the accuracy of the demographic transition model because it shows the different stages of development. For instance, South Africa has a high birth and death rate while the US has low birth rates and death rates showing that the US is more developed. We can see this by looking at the difference in things like unemployment rate and life expectancy. Overall the US is more developed than South Africa shown by the differences between things like population, culture and
There is lots of strategies that have led the ancient empires to their success and staying strong. .Geography was a huge part of history, this is because many people live upon geography. They rely on geography to live. To add on, the success and failures all come from geography, which is very important. Ancient Egypt had many ups and downs through their empire, geography helped them a lot for planting crops and getting resources. Ancient Greece was affected by the geography near their location a lot. The Aksum empire heavily relied on the geography near their empire, it helped them a lot with the way they traded with other empires. In all of the empires, geography was the breaker or the winner and determined whether the empire would fall or
K.H. Connell, in his paper “Land and Population in Ireland, 1780-1845”, describes and explains the significant population growth in Ireland prior to the famine of 1845 and how the uses of the Irish land changed with the population growth.
There are many similarities (and differences) between Ancient Egyptian Pyramids, Mesopotamian ziggurats, and the pyramids of Pre-Columbian South America. All of them had major significance for their peoples cultures and religious beliefs, as well as having historic significance today. The greatest parallel between all of these ancient skyscrapers is that they were made for the upper echelons of these now defunct civilizations.
2011 is a stationary population pyramid. There is roughly an even amount of people in each age group except that there are less people aged 70 and up. For 1995, it is an expansive pyramid because there are a lot more people in the younger ages. There was a large workforce with a lot of younger aged people in the dependency load. Both pyramids reflect a high birth rate, there are a lot of children under the age of 4 in the Northwest Territories.
Thesis Statement: The Great Pyramid is a mystery to the modern age, even though its
How could rational thought and technological development have affected the world’s development in the modern age and the development to where we are today?
This book is a "Short History," of western empires which explain how European civilization and includes chronology of key events are influenced by the empires that was formed in it, like the Roman empire. It starts with Alexander and his Greek army and ends with the EU. Major events between these two events are empires like the Roman Empire, Byzantine Empire, the Catholic Church as an Empire, the Spanish Empire, British Empire, and the European Colonial influence into the 20th Century.
Changing Population Size: With the signing of Versailles treaty in 1919, the population size is on the increase as the country is stable due to the peaceful agreement. Besides, the nation is becoming industrialized as it started some activities such as mining hence people are confident of residing in Germany.
Age structure is very similar between Germany and United Kingdom, hence the behaviour of the selected demographic segmentation will be similar to its home country. (See Appendix B).
There are many reasons for changes in family size over the past 100 years. Family size has been changing in all of the world’s industrial societies.
why it is called the Great Pyramid of GIZA. It is near the west bank
In the deserts of Egypt lie the colossal remains of an ancient civilization. These enormous works of human endeavor are the only member of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World that time has passed down to us. These are, of course, the great pyramids of ancient Egypt. But these imposing structures were not built to impress civilization millennia down the road. The pyramids in fact had a purpose to the ancient Egyptians. While they seem very simple in nature, as they are simply four-sided pyramids with square bases, they had a meaning for those that had them built. Even by today’s standards, the pyramids of ancient Egypt were an impressive feat of engineering, due to their enormous size, both in building materials and finished product.
