Why do boundaries cause problems?

1.) Describe the differences among the three different regime types listed in the textbook (democracy, autocracy, anocracy) and provide examples for each.
a democracy is a country in which citizens elect leaders and can run for office. ex- US
an autocracy is a country that is run according to the interests of their ruler rather than the people. ex- pakistan
an anocracy is a country that is not fully democratic or fully autocratic but displays a mix of the two types. ex- cambodia

2.) Using the map on figure 8-39, list which countries of the world are "full democracies". What region of the world appears to have the greatest concentration of autocratic regimes?
united states, chile, australia, canada, denmark, ireland, sweeden, iceland, germany, spain
northern hemisphere

3.) Using Table 8-1, compare Democracy and Autocracy. 
democracy- citizens can express who they want as their leader, autocracy- leaders are chosen by rules of succession
democracy- there are constraints on the exercise of power by the executive, autocracy- citizens participation is restricted
democracy- guarantee of civil liberties to all citizens in their daily lives, autocracy- leaders exercise power with no meaningful check

Image result for confederal system of government
4. Using the image above, detail the flow of power between the national and local governments in each model. 
In the unitary government the power is going out of the central government. In the Federal government the power is leaving and entering the central government. In the confederal government power is only entering the central government.

Temperature and humidity did play a role in the transmission of other diseases like the flu and chickenpox but it will not play a role in Covid-19. Physical distancing may have to be practiced for another year to see positive results and to slow the spread of this disease.

migration

1. Discuss the topics of push and pull factors and explain the cultural, environmental, and economic reasons for migration.  2. Describe the demographic characteristics of international migrants.  1. A push factor induces people to move out of their present location. A pull factor induces people to move into a new location. Cultural reasons could be for reasons like family status or schools. Some environmental reasons for migrating are flooding or desertification. Economic reasons for migration could be moving to a developed country that has things your home country does not.  2. Gender of migrants and age of migrants. Ravenstein theorized that males were more likely to migrate long distances. In developing countries male immigrants outnumber female immigrants. Ravenstein also theorized that most long-distance migrants were young adults seeking work. The migrants who were moving long-distance were normally individuals not families with children.
