Since i live in it: America

IF we go by the British:

first they landed at Roanoke and Jamestown. Jamestown was successful. 
#1 expansion: colonists were given the right to move all the way up to the Appalachian mountains.
#2 expansion: When the US bought the Louisiana purchase
#3 expansion: The successful revolt of the Texans
#4 expansion: Mexico succeeds most of their northern lands.
#5 expansion: Gadsen purchase: brings the US mainland's border too today.

Many difficulties include:
1) no good maps
2) hard to make livings
3) Indians, robbers, etc
4) diseases, exposure, etc
5) ran out of supplies
6) broken down wagons, etc (if they took the boat to California, it will be: traveling for a long time, etc)
7) etc etc

hope this helps

Japan

         Off the coast of China, the small island country of Japan resides. Japan, the country with one of the largest, most developed economies in the world, has a population of 1.265 million people. Despite the advancements Japan has made in its economy as well as its society and education, Japan has many geographical disadvantages they've had to overcome. For Japan to be where it is now, it has had to surpass hindrances like its terrain and area.

         Japan is a mountainous country, because volcanoes form its islands; its mountains inhibit most agriculture. Japan's rocky soil is infertile, so to counteract that, Japan mainly grows rice in its valleys. Japan's mountainous terrain creates difficulty regarding housing developments, as well; therefore, most of Japan's homes contain multiple stories to fit more people.

         Due to Japan's placement, it rests on the worlds most active fault lines called The Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire creates volcanoes and mountains, and causes earthquakes to occur. In Japan, earthquakes commonly occur, causing cities to rebuild. When an earthquake occurs in the ocean, a tsunami can form; tsunamis kill people, create refugees, and result in food, water, shelter shortages. When this happens, Japan seeks help from its allies for food and shelter.

         In conclusion, Japan faces multiple adversities due to its geography. Although Japan's mountains cause many issues to arise, they are still finding ways to overcome that issue. And despite dealing with earthquakes, tsunamis, and floods as a result of resting on a fault line, Japan has found ways to manage its situation.

A decision matrix chart is a useful tool for

Step 1

List all of your options as the row labels on the table, and list the factors that you need to consider as the column headings. For example, if you were buying a new laptop, factors to consider might be cost, dimensions, and hard disk size.

Step 2

Next, work your way down the columns of your table, scoring each option for each of the factors in your decision. Score each option from 0 (poor) to 5 (very good). Note that you do not have to have a different score for each option – if none of them are good for a particular factor in your decision, then all options should score 0.

Step 3

The next step is to work out the relative importance of the factors in your decision. Show these as numbers from, say, 0 to 5, where 0 means that the factor is absolutely unimportant in the final decision, and 5 means that it is very important. (It's perfectly acceptable to have factors with the same importance.)

Tip:

These values may be obvious. If they are not, then use a technique such as Paired Comparison Analysis  to estimate them.

Step 4

Now multiply each of your scores from step 2 by the values for relative importance of the factor that you calculated in step 3. This will give you weighted scores for each option/factor combination.

Step 5

Finally, add up these weighted scores for each of your options. The option that scores the highest wins!

Why is industrial society inherently unsustainable (please give detailed answer—two paragraphs)?
Komok [63]

Answer and Explanation :

An Industrial Society is mainly formed to care for a huge population and derives its mass production from the use of fossil fuels, artificial fertilizers and other aids that use technology at their heart.

The industrial model an excessive working structure that needs the support of natural resources, man power, genetically modified produce and a curious need to meets the needs of an over-populated and growing society. In simple terms, since the design of this society is based on mass production, there is no natural equilibrium maintained in terms of consumption. And hence an industrial society is inherently unsustainable due to the ever growing consumerism.
