The convergence is what makes the orogenic belts exist, as it is the process that forms them. The convergence is basically two plates moving toward one another, colliding, and either pressing against one another, or one is subducting below the other. The orogenic belts start to develop as the crust is lifted upwards because of the immense pressure from the collision of the plates. As the crust is pushed upwards more and more, eventually a mountain range or ranges are formed. The orogenic belts are always located in close proximity to a plate boundary. Example of orogenic belt is the formation of the Himalayas, as well as the Alps, Andes, Cascades etc.
TheCrusades were a series of religious wars sanctioned by the Latin Church in the medieval period.
I would say that the answers which show how the physical environment affects people are b) Derrick, who lives near the Shenandoah Mountains, spends most weekends hiking (because he lives near those mountains, he can do this on a regular basis) and e) Penelope, who lives in the San Juan Islands, seldom leaves her house without an umbrella (because it always rains there).
