Madagascar is the 4th largest island in the world.
The flow of the Chang Jiang is some 20 times greater than that of the
Huang He. As much of 40% of China's total grain production, 70% of rice
output, and more than 40% of the population are associated with the
Chang Jiang's vast basin that includes more than 3,000 tributaries. With
its numerous tributaries, the Chang Jiang drains nearly 20% of China's
total area. Its upper reaches tap the uplands of the Tibetan Plateau
before sweeping across the enormous and agriculturally productive
Sichuan Basin that supports nearly 10% of China's total population. It
is in the middle course of the Chang Jiang that the controversial Three
Gorges Dam is being constructed.

Explanation:
The European settlers in what is now the United States quickly started to push the natives of their lands and create their colonies. As they were doing so, they started to establish towns and villages, create their own plantations, implement their rules and laws. But this was all happening along the eastern coastline and in close proximity to it. The reason for this was that they had a very big natural barrier in front of them that didn't allowed them to spread out toward the west. This natural barrier were the Appalachian Mountains. The Appalachians are a mountain range that separates almost all of the eastern coastline area from the interior of the country. These mountains are relatively high, had very dense impenetrable forests, and were very dangerous for crossing, so the Europeans avoided them until they developed better means of travel and transportation.
