...of his publication that “Every language is also a special way of looking at the world and interpreting experience concealed in the structure of language are a whole set of unconscious assumptions about the world and the life in it”(Writing logically, Thinking critically 7th edition P 35). Based on this theory, we can learn more about the culture and civilization of a group of people by studying the characteristics of their language. My recent interest into different cultures and languages has led me to the discovery of an amazing group of people called the Massaii tribe. The Massaii tribe is an ancient tribe who lived in the eastern part of what is now called Central Africa. Through the recent discovery of the Massaii language, anthropologists and linguists have been able to infer the following traits about the Massaii civilization: they live in a welcoming environment and sustain themselves by practicing agriculture and breeding, value art and culture, are family-based and are a peaceful society. Amazingly, the Massaii tribe has different terms for the environment surrounding them. They have three words to designate the physical makeup of the terrain which are: “absolutely flat”, “rolling”, and “slightly hilly”. Perhaps the land is flat and expanded in some areas, and has rolling hills in others. They have no word for “ocean”. This could mean they live somewhere Lagueu 2 inland far away from the coastline. While the language does not...

...Content and analysis Political Factors Indonesia has undergone a political transformation since the upheaval of 1998 which saw the fall of General Suharto after 30 years of authoritarian rule and a collapse of the Rupiah. The country is now a vibrant democracy that is continuing to strengthen its political structures and deepen the enfranchisement of the population. In Indonesia, there are parliamentary and presidential elections every five years. After every five years, election is being contested for president and vice president post by direct vote of the citizenry. In 20 October 2014, Joko Widodo has been elected as president and Jusuf Kala is the vice president. However, corruption and slow-moving bureaucracy continues to be a persistent issue. The government faces great challenges in consolidating Indonesia's democratic transition, restoring the country's economic momentum, and in bringing the benefits of development to all Indonesia's citizens. Among the key political issues with economic implications are periodic outbreaks of communal violence around the country, particularly in Central Sulawesi; demands for greater autonomy or independence in Papua; the presence of the regional terrorist organization Jemaah Islamiyah (JI); and deep-seated weaknesses in the rule of law at all levels throughout the country. Economical Factors Indonesia is considered as a developing country. They have hub of natural resources such as in oil production. The top exports of Indonesia...

...Tibetan-highlands. Its physical features are multiples. The eastern and southern half of the country, its seacoast fringed with offshore islands, is a region of fertile lowlands and foothills with most of the agricultural output and human population. The western and northern half of China is a region of sunken basins (Gobi, Taklamakan), rolling plateaus, and towering massifs, including a portion of the highest tableland on earth (Tibetan Plateau) with lower agricultural possibilities and thus, far less populated. Traditionally, the Chinese population centered around the Chinese central plain and oriented itself toward its own enormous inland market, developing as an imperial power whose center lay in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River on the northern plains. More recently, the 18,000-kilometers coastline have been used extensively for export-oriented trade, making a power shift, with the coastline provinces becoming the leading economic center. With an area of about 9.6 million km², the People's Republic of China is the 3rd largest country in total area behind Russia and Canada, and very similar to the United States. This figure is sometimes challenged by border disputes, most notably about Taiwan, Aksai Chin, the Trans-Karakoram Tract, and South Tibet.[1] Climate of China Owing to tremendous differences in latitude, longitude, and...
