slega [8]3 years ago

We know that the poles had changed positions in the past, because of the arrangement of the crystals in the rocks made out of metal. The crystals of the metals act like the needle of the compass when the rock is cooling off and forming, they turn into the direction of the strongest magnetic field on the Earth, which is the North Pole. So by studying the rocks that are made out of metals and see the crystals arrangement and also estimate the age of the rocks, the scientist can precisely tell how has the North Pole been moving throughout time.

What dictated the division of ancient Greece into many small, independent city states?
pishuonlain [190]
The one answer that I am missing among the options, but which is the correct one is: the geography of the region ( I assume that that's what was instead of the "7" in the first option).

It was very mountainous, with valleys and islands on which people lived -meaning there was a natural separation between the different settlements.
