Cultural Geography

Today we had finished going over the three elements of cultural geography. Religion, Language, and Ethnic Heritage.  The Language brings people together in an area. In the middle east everybody speaks Arabic but there are different branches of the language but the language is still the same. In Iran and Iraq they speak the language differently they can still under stand what each other is staying. The ethnic heritage is where you come from and what you have grown up learning. Just because you move to a new area you don't forget  what you have learned growing up. The religion has another effect because it is what you learned from your religion.
