See blog post below (Armed conflict). We'll start examining the types of conflict; you'll use the blog post below to examine three conflicts (Syria, South Sudan, Israel-Palestine and a fourth that you will choose).
You have a short test this week:
Textbook, p. 180-189
- causes of tension and conflict
- specific vocabulary (5)
- map of ten countries: Turkey, Syria, Iraq, DRC, China, Tibet, Israel-Palestine, Russia, India and Pakistan
- Bonus: 5 of the largest urban areas from the Population & Migration unit (Tokyo, Jakarta, Seoul, Delhi, Shanghai)
Two short links you might find interesting:
NPR: Map of countries by population (Canada disappears)
and
Bloomberg about India's growing economy (and will take over China...)
The list of five is up, but it's on your map - not from this unit. These can be found on the internet, as with the countries I indicated.
