How did plate tectonics and glaciation impact how the Columbia Plateau looks today?

History

Daniel [21]9 months ago
7 0

Carbon is buried deep below the surface as the planet's tectonic plates slide and churn against one another, exposing new rock that will absorb more carbon over time. that massive volcanic eruptions can release carbon, resulting in mass extinctions.

<h3>What effects do tectonic plates have?</h3>

Evidence of interactions and stress caused by the movement of the plates can be seen in the uplift and sinking of land, earthquakes (the sudden release of energy that causes shaking), and volcanic eruptions.

<h3>How does Columbia Plateau appear?</h3>

The Columbia Plateau is an area of flat land and gently rolling hills cut by the sometimes steep river canyons of the Columbia and its tributaries in a river basin that is mostly mountainous and has steep valleys.It measures approximately 250 miles across and is roughly triangular in shape.

How were the Aborigine people affected when their children were forced to live with British families or in institutions?
loris [4]

The Aborigines found themselves in a situation were they were systematically assimilated into a new culture without being able to do anything. The children where taken away from their parents, and they were raised by people that were of British descent or were educated in British based institutions. That led to the children learning only what their British parents and institutions were teaching them, thus not being able to preserve anything from the Aboriginal culture.

Also, there were forced marriages between the British settlers and the Aboriginal women with the purpose of ethnically wiping out the Aborigines in few generations. That was one of the worst methods that has been used for destroying indigenous people.

The illegal event that constituted the start of the french revolution was when the third estate declared itself
Alborosie
The National Assembly of France.

This was illegal according to the laws of the time, but the 3rd Estate was declaring those laws and rules as a system that opposed the will and well-being of the people of France.

The old laws on the books said that when a gathering of the Estates General occurred, each of the three estates met separately and each group had one collective vote (the consensus of the whole group) as their final vote.  The 1st Estate (clergy) and 2nd Estate (nobility), representing 2% of the population total, would combine their votes in opposition to the vote of the 3rd Estate (the common people).  The 3rd Estate essentially declared that they, 98% of the nation, were the nation and that their delegates thus were the National Assembly.

There's more to the story than that, but we'll keep it brief here for now!
