hi kidThere are countless ways in which geography affects people. It is a key factor in influencing the way of life of people in a given region. Local resources determine the food people eat which in turn influences the overall health and nutrition of a population. Sure, food from other regions is often imported, but often a region's cuisine is determined by what is readily and affordably available and what has been traditionally consumed for generations.

Natural resources of a geographic area also play a role in the local economy. For instance, a region with ample petroleum reserves can grow wealthy off of this by exporting it to regions that lack such reserves. Take a look at the United Arab Emirates, for instance. A century ago, this country was little more than a backwater. Then, after the global need for petroleum surged, it has steadily grown into one of the wealthiest nations on the planet.

Strategic geographic locations also affect the people who live there. The tiny nation of Singapore is wealthy because it lies along an important shipping route. The Poles have endured repeated invasions and conquests because they inhabit a country with few natural defensive barriers in between other strong nations.

Geography plays a part in someone's relationship with the physical environment. Rising ocean levels are threatening to displace people who live in low lying coastal areas. People who live in temperate climates must adapt to changing seasons several times a year while those in the tropics do not.

Sometimes being situated near many other cultures affects the culture of the place itself. The island of Taiwan, for instance, has been influenced by the Chinese and Japanese as a result of various conquests and migrations which has given it a culture all its own. On the other hand, more isolated peoples in places like far-flung Polynesian islands or Madagascar have developed cultures more endemic to their location.

Many more examples could be given considering that geography is a vast field with a multitude of ramifications. Suffice it to say, that nobody on earth is immune from the influence of their geography.

You create the conclusion ..

Today I will be comparing both the poet's views on the war that are, and how they convey this through their writing,with use of language, structure, devices and/or imagery. The Battle of Blenheim and The Charge of the Light Brigade both question the point of war and show the horror of battle. One does it through the eyes of child helping us to question war and the other uses the energy and heroism of the cavalry in a tragic and futile battle.Both poems are ballads. This form is used to tell the story of war. <span>It tells the story of the six hundred men who charged to their inevitable death in a battle in the Crimean War. The men were acting on wrong orders and their tragic story shows us that war is futile. They could not nor would not have wanted to question the orders, 'theirs not to reason why, theirs but to do and die.' Although Tennyson shows disbelief that the men had to charge into the 'mouth of hell' he does not blame the brave soldiers, the 'noble six hundred.' Instead he thinks we should 'honor the charge they made'. This poem both celebrates and questions the men of war. The way both poems are structured is very similar, they are both tightly structured into small paragraphs consisting of short lines, (this is a typical characteristic of ballads/poems). The Battle Of Blenheim is made up of paragraphs containing 6 short sentences. This is consistent throughout the poem.</span>
