<span>The Five Themes in Geography</span><span>

1 Location: Position on the Earth's Surface (Absolute/Relative). Geographic study begins with the location of places on the earth. Places have absolute locations that pinpoint them on the earth, and relative locations that place each location in respect to other locations. For example, North Dakota has an absolute location that can be pointed to on any basic map. It also has a relative location in that it has a location within the economic system based on its characteristics and location within the world market. North Dakota has its absolute location's characteristics for soil and climate, yet the success of wheat growing is also related to its location to the edge of more expensive arm land to the east.

How did John D. Rockfeller impact modern society?
zlopas [31]
<span>His impact on the Industrial Revolution in America was the biggest of any single U.S. citizen. His trust of oil, and control of the railroads, and oil tank cars on the railroad allowed him immense power since the federal government instituted no regulation of business to allow competition to develop in the various industries totally or in-part controlled by Rockefeller. This ended of course when Theodore Roosevelt broke the industrial trusts early in the 20th century. Rockefeller did go on to institute many worthwhile charities and foundations that have and continue to benefit people around the world. Rockefeller had no peer when it came to making business decisions that only he would make with regular success that eventually made him the wealthiest person in United States history. Using today's wealth standards his personal fortune was well over 1/4 of a trillion (that's with a T) dollars.</span>
