Answer:

Nepal is made up of three strikingly contrasted areas. Southern Nepal has much of the character of the great plains of India, from which it extends. Known as the Terai, this region comprises both cultivable land and dense jungle, the latter being for the most part a game preserve inhabited by the wild elephant, tiger, and other typically South Asian fauna. Besides being a hunting ground, the forests are worked for their valuable timber. The Terai contains about one-third of Nepal's population and makes up about one-fourth of the total area. The second and by far the largest part of Nepal is formed by the Mahabharat, Churia, and Himalayan mountain ranges, extending from east to west. Their altitude increases toward the north, culminating on the Tibetan border in Mt. Everest (Sagarmatha in Nepali), standing amid other noble peaks. Three principal rivers originate from glaciers and snow-fed lakes, break southward through deep Himalayan gorges, and enter, respectively, the Karnali, Gandak, and Kosi basins. Flowing toward India, they become tributaries (as are all Nepal's rivers) of the Ganges system. The third area is a high central region, some 890 km (344 sq mi) in extent between the main Himalayan and Mahabharat ranges; this region is known as the Ka¯thmāndu Valley, or the Valley of Nepal. Overlooked by mountains, the valley, with its fertile soil and temperate climate, supports a thriving agriculture. Here Ka¯thmāndu, the capital, is situated, with the foothill towns of Bhaktapur and Patan nearby. This is the only region of Nepal that has any considerable population density.

Eight of the world's highest mountains are situated in the Himalaya range on the Tibetan border. Triangulated in 1850, Mt. Everest was officially given the status of the world's highest peak in 1859. The summit (8,850 m/29,035 ft) was reached for the first time on 29 May 1953 by Sir Edmund Hillary, a New Zealander, and Tenzing Norgay, a Sherpa guide.

It is the another range formed by the natural process of the earth surface. After a thousand years, slowly the hills and plateaus turn into a plain land and sea also started to fill by the some debris at the end of Pleistocene period which converts into plain terai. This is how the single country Nepal was formed.

What is katniss's initial assessment of how she stands versus the other tributes? -?
Debora [2.8K]
I think she feels a bit discouraged because she doesn't believe she is as good as the rest of the tributes. Most of them have spent their entire lives preparing for the Hunger Games, whereas Katniss volunteered to save her sister. She was unprepared for the Games, but learned the ropes over the course of the training.

Natalija [7]

The correct answer is C) France.

Although you forgot to attach the map, we did some deep research and can say that the imperial nation that appears to have the most dominance in Africa is France.

After France, it was Great Britain that had the most dominance in Africa.

We are talking about the years of the Scramble for Africa, a period in history in which Africa had been taken by European superpowers such as  Great Britain, France, Germany, Spain, Belgium, or Portuga

These countries colonized the territories of the African continent and even formed new territories that fit their political and economic interests. The Scramble for Africa started approximately in 1881 and by 1914, most of Africa had been taken over by Europeans. European nations were only interested in exploiting the raw materials and natural resources of Africa.
