1.East Asia is surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, India Ocean, and multiple seas. The oceans have influenced much of japans culture by keeping it isolated from the Asian mainland. The oceans and seas have had a huge impact on this region’s Economy. Singapore is one of the largest ports and is located on the Strait of Malacca. The islands and coastal cities depend on the seas and oceans for food.
ReplyDelete2.Well, if they live by the water they probably eat fish. They probably have a ton of jobs for fishing. The towns and cities on the coast and islands probably suffer from tsunamis. They probably rely on their fishing industry and make enough money to live on every year. Just a side note everyone in this region must be sick of fish.
The coast of Asia is surrounded by two oceans – the Indian and the Pacific – and also many, many other seas. Because of the affect of isolation on Japan, it has a completely different culture than those of mainland Asia. Seas are also good for traffic. They transport goods from country to country with ease. The seas are also depended on for food. The islands in Southeast Asia use seas for fishing purposes.
ReplyDeleteYou can infer that Southeast Asia has many ways of traffic, including waterways, in which many other countries do not use. Seas are also useful for the impact of being isolated. That makes Japan and the Philippines’ cultures utterly different. They also serve as waterways for trading goods. Seas and Rivers are very good food resources.
East Asia is surrounded by the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean. Japan has developed a unique culture partly because it is isolated from the mainland. Oceans and seas are important for the economy because they can be trade routes. The South China Sea carries much of the World’s shipping traffic. Singapore is one of the World’s busiest ports because it controls the Strait of Malacca. This region depends on the sea for food because of the fishing industries.
ReplyDeleteI think that oceans and seas have a huge affect on any area. Oceans and Seas can make the humidity level go up or down. It can also affect the waters force on an area because of wind. I think that they can help countries get more food because of fishing. Also it could help countries get more people because of the pretty sights there are to see around a body of water.
1. Summarize the main points from the section
ReplyDeleteThree climates one brings cold dry air, one brings Cool moist the other brings warm moist.
The artic air comes from the artic ocean and depends what direction the wind is.
East Asia and Southeast Asia are overruled by two massive oceans: the Indian and the Pacific. Japan developed its own country mainly because its seas kept them away from Asian lands. Oceans and seas play a major role in trade route. The South China Sea carries most of the world’s shipping traffic. Singapore is one of the world’s busiest ports because it is in charge of the Strait of Malacca. The ocean is also depended on for food.
ReplyDeleteThe seas provide them with food. It also gives them a way to travel to different countries to trade. Fishing can be done as well. Different countries can interact and share religions if they feel it necessary. As well as, learn from each other. The oceans also provide food for crops.
The Indian and Pacific oceans are the two major bodies of water off the coastline of East and Southeast Asia. Oceans and seas are very important to this regions economy and probably everywhere else in the world too. Oceans and seas are important because they can be good routes for trade. Another reason oceans and seas are important is because many people that live on islands or along the coast of this region depend on the waters for food. In this region some countries have some of the world’s biggest deep-sea fishing industries, like Japan or Taiwan.
ReplyDeleteI think that oceans and seas have a really big influence in this region and anywhere else in the world. A good thing about it is that oceans and seas are a very good source for food, this is an especially a good source for people that are poor or have less wealth then others. Another good thing is trading. The oceans and seas help provide a route for trade or selling goods or other useful things to other countries. Tsunami’s, hurricanes, or earthquakes are a negative impact to this region and many other places around the world.
Seas and rivers
ReplyDeleteThe Indian and Pacific Ocean border the coast lines of East and Southwest Asia. Oceans and Seas are good for trading so the people don’t always have to eat Chinese. The seas are also important to catch fish. Japan South Korea, twain, and china are some of the most dependent on fish. This can get very annoying after eating fish for so long.
Some influences that seas and rivers can have on this land are fish. Fish is very popular in this area for food. Trading is very important every were so seas and oceans can make a big economic difference. Japan has a very unique culture because of where it is located which is in an ocean. Oceans and seas have influenced this region’s history.
In this section the main point is about the oceans and rivers. The poin is that some contries use the rivers and oceans to trade. Others use the river and oceansto make people pay to pass threw to sell there goods. By controling the major trade routs you are able to make more mony. That is the main idea of this section.
ReplyDeleteSome thing you can say about what people use the river for is to get the mony to buy stuff for your family. Along with that people use the river to comete or make others look stupid.Along whith just making them pay for going down a river they could halve walked for free. Then they could make a biger profit. That is the genirlazition of why people use the river.
East Asia is surrounded by two major oceans, the Pacific and the Indian Ocean. The Influence that these bodies of water have on Asia is huge. They have been very important for their economies, as well as it are a great way for trade. Singapore is one of the world’s busiest ports.
ReplyDeleteAs you have noticed Asia is very lucky to have so many waterways surrounding them. They have a huge influence on these areas. Without the waterways it would greatly affect this areas diet. Fish is a big part of their diet as well as rice, rice grows in a swampy area and fish live in the water.
