Influence of Geography on History and Development
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing geography’s influence on history. Geography has a great impact on history, development, and social, cultural, religious and political affiliations. Historically, regions with geographical advantageous positions, such as those with access to navigable waterways have led other areas in regards to exploration, market economy and development. Geographically, Britain provides an excellent example of the advantages of a land with fertile soil, navigable waterways and a long coastline with natural harbors. This led England to exploration and navigation which in turn led them to other lands which they could develop. Other regions with water access also gained a great deal in trade and exploration. New lands which were developed were also those which were easily accessible, had irritable soil, and navigable waterways. Lands which did not have these geographically preferred features were largely neglected unless they were geophysically blessed with natural resources such as oil or gold. Today geography still plays an essential influence on the historical affiliations of many peoples who despite political, religious or international alliances are still mostly affected with their geographical locale. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Ireland's Role in Preserving Classic History
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page paper discussing the similarities and differences between Vogt's "Decline of Rome" and Cahill's "How the Irish Saved Civilization." In many ways, these works describe differing pictures of loyalty - one to a system in which people lived; the other to a system in which people no longer needed to live. They also are both about transition. The Roman empire had fallen into an irreversible, inexorable slide about which it appeared nothing could be done. Neither could the Europe resulting from Rome's eventual fall do anything about the state in which it found itself, but Cahill credits Irish monks with ultimately saving Western civilization by recording Rome's history while also interjecting their own values. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
