Today in class we had a quiz. The quiz was on the north and central American countries. I believe I got one of the answers wrong on the North American countries. Other than that, it was easy. I studied hard during advisory, so the countries were still fresh in my mind. That last minute study was a major help to me. The website was also a huge help to me. It took me eight tries, but I finally got 100% on both categories and under a minute. The most frustrating was definitely the north American countries. The countries down south are so small and close together I got them confused. For some reason I kept putting Costa Rica where Honduras should be. It was very frustrating at first but eventually on the day of the quiz I was able to tell the two apart. The central America countries were the easiest to identify. The countries were spaced out and much larger.

Option C

Option C: Consider our studies of fertility (which include data on CBR and TFR) and mortality (CDR, Infant Mortality Rate, Life Expectancy, and Rate of Natural Increase). Describe the four (or five) stages of the Demographic Transition, beginning with the Industrial Revolution, proceeding to the present day, and projecting into the future. Be sure to discuss individual countries as you describe the different stages. In the world every country will go through a series of stages. They can delay what happens, but they can’t avoid it. The series of stages have been mapped out for us on the demographic transition. There are 4 or maybe 5 stages every country will go through. Each one is different in its own way. The first stage is the beginning for the countries. This is before the industrial revolution, but during the time when people were still hunters and gatherers. They would go out and hunt any food they could find. The country will have a high birth rate, high death rate, and a l...

Class today was easy. We finished the slide show of the longitude and latitude lines. The quiz is tomorrow but I really need to study. South America is full of countries unlike the U.S. We have states united to form a country. Since they're united states they technically have a right to leave and form its own country. That's a completely crazy idea to think about. Imagine the state of Rhode Island leaving the states. We would have a tiny nation right next to us and they could declare war. To me the idea of Rhode Island fighting is very funny. But the scary idea is Texas leaving us. Texas is a major powerhouse with a huge population. They could easily take over the states next to it. The only ones able to stand a chance against Texas would be California. I would pay to see that battle. I'm betting money Texas is going to win.
