Answer:

Map projections and distortion. If a map preserves shape, then feature outlines (like country boundaries) look the same on the map as they do on the earth

Map scale refers to the relationship (or ratio) between distance on a map and the corresponding distance on the ground.

What do mexico finland and ghana have in common
kupik [55]

The two things that this three countries have in common are that they are all predominantly Christian countries, and that all three of them have access to sea.

Mexico, Finland, and Ghana, are all predominantly Christian countries. They all fall into different branches of Christianity though, and the percentages vary, with Mexico having the highest, and Ghana the smallest percentage of the population practicing this religion.

All of the countries mentioned have access to sea. This has been and still is very important for their economic development because they are all able to dictate their own economies and their own trade with whoever they want.

In your opinion, did Columbus discovered the West Indies? Discuss why.
irakobra [83]

Answer:

In my opinion Columbus did discover the west indies because the definition it states "Discover means to find (something or someone) unexpectedly or in the course of a search." never in the definition does it mention in order to "discover" something you have to be the first one to find it or be the first one to come across such and such. I see why some people might disagree but if it were in terms of if Columbus founded the west indies I would have a completely different opinion because there were people their before he was "there were already people living there. The Taino and Carib were the largest groups in the region when Columbus arrived in 1493. ..." The definition of founded is "establish or originate (an institution or organization), especially by providing an endowment." which would confirm he ONLY discovered and didn't found the west indies when both definitions are juxtaposed this is made clear.
