When a river meets an ocean and spreads into what looks like a triangular shape, the landform or body of water being created is called a<u> Delta</u>.

Deltas are:

  • Formed at the point where a river meets another body of water
  • Formed such that they have a triangular shape
  • Caused by water erosion

Deltas take a triangular shape at the mouth of a river when the river is meeting a water body such as a lake or ocean.

They form because of water erosion resulting from when the river picks up soil particles and carries them to its mouth where they are deposited and obstruct the flow of water thereby creating a delta.

In conclusion, erosion causes a delta to form when water carries soil and deposits it at its mouth.

1. Which statement describes the principles of the Nationalist party?
kaheart [24]

Answer: Nationalist parties propagate ideas that we can sometimes associate with right-wing beliefs.

Explanation:

With the advent of nationalism, which mainly dates back to the nineteenth century, political entities emerged that supported such ideas. Nationalism and nationalist parties are still present worldwide today. The primary purpose of these political options is to propagate the ideas of nationalism, to put the state in the focus of everything, even above the collective and private positions of feelings.

Nationalism, and therefore the parties that have this prefix, identify with chauvinism towards non-affiliates of their nation. We recognize here the fact that the perpetrators of nationalist ideas have too often resorted to building negative stereotypes about other countries to motivate members of their people to gather for protection against the real or imagined danger of aggression of other nations. The propaganda and political platform of such political options can often be radical and dangerous.
