Living in a rainforest climate

Well I would enjoy it a lot more due to the fact it's warm all of the time. I would also enjoy the fact that it would rain a lot not. I really am not a fan of rain, but it is better than snow... Also I would have some issues with all of the animals and other health issues that would arise living in that type of climate. Overall though it would be fun living in a rainforest climate. Also the tropical animals would be very nice to have around me!

Communist Nation Living

If I lived in a communist nation then all of our goods and such would go to the country not ourselves. We would all have jobs and 0% unemployment. At the same time though we would also have free services like healthcare,  education etc..... We would all be in pretty bad homes and conditions though... So all in all if we lived in a communist nation life would be hard!

Most interesting thing....

I learned about Taipei 101 and that it's the 3rd largest building in the world! Also about 20% of the world's tea is made in Taiwan. Also they are formally known as the Republic of China, until they got kicked out of the mainland by the PRC.

Olympics

I really don't think some sports should be deleted. Well maybe basketball, I mean it's mainly an american sport! Also I think we could maybe delete shooting or whatever it's called.... I think we should add lacrosse to it! Lacrosse is becoming a pretty big sport, not only in america but they do have a world cup of sorts of it. With countries from all over the world!

Wha I know about china?

Well I know that they speak mandarin chinese, but many other regional varieties are spoken.  There is technically 2 chinas currently. One the peoples republic of China and the other one the Republic of China which is reduced to only Taiwan. They had a civil war so they broke up from 1 republic into 2 different ones.  They have been rule by emperors until 1901 I believe when the republic was established!

First Unit Overview

I thought the first unit was cool! I already now a lot about India so it was interesting to learn some new things about it! Plus I'm interested in other religions so the Hinduism part was neat.  It was overall a good course. Nothing really didn't work, but I didn't really like the Indian Culture project that much. It was a little impromptu. I found everything interesting. I hope we do something like this for SE Asia, or East Asia !

How has Facebook impacted the world

Facebook has changed the world  in a lot of ways. Like for one thing, it has linked people who lie far away or who would not have much contact, they would have contact. Also it lets people from all over remember there friends. Also a lot of people who invested in Facebook are pretty wealthy now as a part of that. This is why Facebook has impacted the world.

Hinduism Compare/Contrast

Well in hinduism they have many different G-ds. From Brahma, Siva, etc... In comparison to Judaism they are alike in some ways.... For instance, Judaism believes in one supreme G-d, now in Judaism G-d has many different names. Adonai, Hashem, G-d these are all different names for one G-d. Now Hinduism believes in one spirit which is Brahman. Now Brahman is the creator of the universe. They have karma in Hinduism, which Judaism doesn't have...

Should country borders be detrained by religion?

I think they should, because they have their own ethnic and religious groups. Like in punjab where the majority of people are sick, they have there ow region. Also it would help with stability and revolt issues. They would't want independence if they got their own region.

Indias Population Problem

Well, once the population reaches 1.6 billion a lot of problems will arise. One is that there will be overpopulation in India.  People will have to build new houses, or take down new places to get more people in. Also food shortages will probably become more rampant. They will have to produce more food for the country. Also probably more sicknesses will happen because of the close proximity of people.
