Mr. Harrington’s example • Within the 5 major world religions, Buddhism and Islam are similar in that the two faiths are universal religions that spread beyond their origins mainly on trade routes, but the two religions are different where Islam has spread into Africa where Buddhism has spread mainly throughout Asia. Islam and Buddhism are universal religions that have allowed people to accept the religious practices from any culture or ethnic group. Both religions used missionaries and trade routes to spread the faith to other groups of people and locations. Though both are universal religions only Islam has spread into Africa where Buddhism has spread mainly in Asia. Islam and Buddhism are both universal religions, spread through missionary work along trade routes, but their diffusion has taken place mainly in different parts of the globe.

18. 5 Themes of Geography • Mr. Harrington’s experience: Last summer my wife and I drove our son Jackson to Teton National Park and Yellowstone National Park. We enjoyed watching the Old Faithful geyser and other hydrothermal features of the Upper Geyser Basin. My son enjoyed seeing bison and elk for the first time in his life. The ride wasn’t great or his favorite as he was sick most of the time and we traveled about 2000 miles. • Place description: Yellowstone is a super volcano or caldera with a vast hydrothermal system with geysers, mud pots, and steam pools. Yellowstone was the first National Park in the United States, established in 1872.

19. 5 Themes of Geography • Location: • Absolute: 44 North Latitude 110 West Longitude • Relative: Northwest corner of Wyoming, Southern Montana, Eastern Idaho • Regional Description: Yellowstone National Park is in the Rocky Mountain Region of the U.S.- Though the Rockies are usually dry Yellowstone has very unpredictable weather and does receive more precipitation than most places in the local region. • Movement: The first people to visit the area where Native Americans who travelled there on foot. After the introduction of the horse, stage coach tours occurred in the area. Eventually the parks was provided roads to allow cars to tour the park. Snowmobiles and snow coaches allow for winter visits.

20. 5 Themes of Geography • Human Environmental Interaction: • Modified-People have created lodges and cabins within the park to stay and visit. Roads, bridges and observation points have been created. • People have helped preserve the nearly extinct bison population, grizzly bears and re-introduced the wolves to the area. • Depend- We depend on the area to study wildlife and geothermal activity to understand more about calderas. Preserving the park and environment creates jobs. • Adapt: During winter the park used to be closed but the use of snowmobiles and snow coaches allowed access to the park. Most people must adapt to not having cell phone service in the park!!
