Answer:

A map usually has a legend, or key, that gives the scale of the map and explains what the various symbols represent. Some maps show relief, or changes in elevation. A common way to show relief is contour lines, also called topographic lines. These are lines that connect points that have equal elevation.

The process of nomadic hunter gatherers becoming sedentary farmers.
Triss [41]

Answer:

It took climate change, fertile river valleys, domestication of crops and animals so that the hunter-gatherers became sedentary farmers.

Explanation:

Initially, all humans were hunter-gatherers. This was due to multiple reasons, with one the biggest one probably being the climate which was not enabling good conditions for the hunter-gatherers to transform their lifestyle. All other conditions needed were stopped because of the climate conditions, so humans had to do what they could to survive in those conditions.

About 10 years ago though the bad climate conditions ended, or rather the Ice Age ended. This resulted in a much warmer climate, which in turn created much more water bodies like rivers and lakes, much more vegetation, and they contributed to the creation of much more fertile soil.

With these conditions in place, the humans quickly saw that there is huge potential in some plants and animals, so they started to farm them, select the ones with the best characteristics, and gradually producing enough food for themselves. With the food problem solved, humans didn't have the need to wonder around all the time, so they started abandoning the hunter-gatherer lifestyle and started settling in one place.

Afghanistan's mountains
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Afghanistan's mountains have kept the country from ever being invaded.

Explanation:

Afghanistan is a country in terrible conditions, and this is not the case just nowadays but it has been like that for a very long time. Despite all of the internal troubles of the country and it seems to be very weak in pretty much every sector, it has never been invaded in the past few centuries, and very rarely in the more distant history and always it has been short-lasting.

The main reason for this has been the mountains and the general geography of the country. Very high and rugged mountains are separating the country from potential invaders. Even if an invading force manages to go through the mountains, it will suffer great losses just by doing so, and what comes next is desert and more rugged terrain, which will further damage them, so by the time they engage in battle, they will be too weak to conquer Afghanistan.
