Answer:
Mercator projection
Explanation:
Using a flat paper map to represent the sphere that is our planet has always been a challenge. The Mercator projection is one of the most common representation, although we know it is more accurate around the Equator line and the precision diminishes as you get closer to the poles.
There are other types of projections, correcting some issues, but with their own flaws too. The only accurate representation of the planet is a globe, since it matches the shape of the planet.
The speed of a wave measures how far one particular crest (or trough) moves in a given amount of time. The speed of the wave changes according to the following equation:
v = λ
* f
According this equation, it follows that as the speed and length of a wave decreases, the wave grows higher (the higher the frequency).
Why might a post classical civilization want to conquer Egypt and the Nile River Valley? It's fertile land provided the foundation for the first human civilizations and its access to the Persian Gulf and location between Europe, Asia, and Africa made it a center of trade.
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
One thing that the Balkan Mountains have done is create very distinct cultures. Every location has different cultures, but these mountains are very large physical barriers to cultural interaction, so this has led to a plethora of different ethnic and cultural groups in the Balkan region.
Another thing that they have done is create a sort of hierarchy where those that are more well off live in the valley, further away and from the mountains, and those who may not be as well off, considered inferior, or simply desire to practice transhumance, herding, or being a nomad will be dwelling in the mountains. It creates different "zones" based on the geography of the area.
A final thing these mountains have done is create cultural tension in the Balkan Peninsula. Since so many of these groups develop isolated from from other cultures, efforts to unite these groups usually fail and it leads to rancor between these distinct groups. This is why this area has been very war-torn before in states such as Bosnia and Herzegovina.
