1. lived in China for twenty years--Marco Polo

2. searched for the Fountain of Youth--Ponce de Leon

3. first to explore the St. Lawrence River--Cartier    

4. began the first permanent French settlement--Champlain  

5. explored the Mississippi with Marquette--Joliet  

6. followed the Mississippi to the Gulf--La Salle  

7. first to round the Cape of Good Hope--Dias

8. discovered the Mississippi River--De Soto


These questions highlight the period of exploration occurring in the 15th-16th century.  Marco Polo was the inspiration for the period because he introduced Asian productions to Europeans. Exploration had the goal of finding a direct route to Asia. Exploration eventually led Europeans to the Americas where explorers would take the risk to discover the geography and resources of the new land.

How has the Arizona-Sonoran region developed a separate identity that is neither American nor Mexican? How has the region contri
Eva8 [605]

Arizona and Sonora share the same ecosystem, the Sonoran Desert region. They share common history, several Native American tribes on both sides of the border, and they have six border twin towns. The natural boundary is 361 miles long and it has never been a totally closed border. Arizona needed Sonora's miners and ranchers and they have been the biggest source of migrants to the USA.

Because of the constant flow of people across the border, the Arizona-Sonora region <em>developed its own separate identity.</em> Many people living there are bilingual and commute daily to the other side of the border for work. Their value system has been affected by the proximity of a different culture. As a result of that, intercultural and interracial mixing took place that created a generation of people who feel a connection to both countries at the same time. Prejudices have been reduced and stereotypes abolished.

<em>The interdependence</em> between the USA and Mexico has always been and still is business related. Starting with vegetables trading, the cross border shopping and manufacturing developed into big industry today. A major economy connection has developed through the maquiladora sector. Arizona based companies operate about 30% of maquiladoras in Sonora and Sonora's economy is dependent on this and the automobile industry in Arizona.

Cross-border shopping, tourism ( for pleasure and medical reasons), joined environmental projects, bilingual schools and cultural events are all parts of the interdependence between the two countries.
