I would like you to do a little research on your own! Pick a culture/country that you would like to know more about. THEN.....I want you to find out some information on the people who live there based on the course material, then write a paper between 3-4 pages, size 12 font and double spaced. Then you will take 1-2 minutes to share this information with the class. The information should be based on the 8 questions below. HOWEVER, the paper should be written in essay form with an introduction, and a conclusion.

1. Where are they located? What is their physical environment, ex. (mountainous, plains, tropical, cold, etc) and how does their physical environment affect their every day life? What is their population?

2. What is their government structure and how does this affect the way they live? Were they influenced by other cultures? For example, were they under French or English rule? Are they still? What language do they speak?
