Words Hub - Vocabulary Lessons Interactive definition matching game using geography vocabulary. http://highschoolhub.org/hub/geography.cfm
Extractions: About Words Hub Words Hub is a growing collection of online interactive English vocabulary lessons for middle school and high school students. Each lesson focuses on a set of eight related vocabulary words. Students master the words by playing a definition matching game and then working at their own pace through three progressively more difficult vocabulary activities. This site requires the latest version of the free Flash Player . Since the lessons contain many SAT words, working through them is a great SAT vocabulary review. The lessons can also be used for English Language Arts enrichment.

Country Studies-home Contains information on geography, weather, government, religion, social, economic, and political issues for many countries. http://lcweb2.loc.gov/frd/cs/cshome.html
Extractions: This website contains the on-line versions of books previously published in hard copy by the Federal Research Division of the Library of Congress under the Country Studies/Area Handbook Program sponsored by the U.S. Department of Army. Because the original intent of the Series' sponsor was to focus primarily on lesser known areas of the world or regions in which U.S. forces might be deployed, the series is not all-inclusive. At present, 102 countries and regions are covered. Notable omissions include Canada, the United States, France, the United Kingdom, and other Western nations, as well as a number of African nations. The date of information for each country appears on the title page of each country and at the end of each section of text. Search The Country Studies Series presents a description and analysis of the historical setting and the social, economic, political, and national security systems and institutions of countries throughout the world and examines the interrelationships of those systems and the ways they are shaped by cultural factors.

A History Of Atlantis And The Atlantean Empire The history of Atlantis and its empire, supposedly discovered in an alternate world. The site contains detailed descriptions of Atlantean geography, society, arts, philosophy, warfare and languages. http://members.tripod.com/grahamjmabey
Extractions: A History of Atlantis and the Atlantean Empire Sayatal atlantisayu ed atlanan ceriehayu The story of the lost civilisation of Atlantis rediscovered? Or a work of imagination? Atlantis - the history of a lost civilisation? You can read here the whole story of a hitherto unknown civilisation, and decide for yourself if it is the true story of a whole society forgotten for millennia, or simply a work of imagination. I discovered this very detailed history of Atlantis and her empire - " Sayatal atlantisayu ed atlanan ceriehayu" in the original tongue - as a handwritten document in a package on my doorstep! That much I know to be fact. Yet the history itself appears to be the work of an author describing the archaeological and literary discoveries about Atlantis and neighbouring countries found beneath the Sahara Desert. Is this truth - and if so, how can it be, as we know of no such discoveries being made in our world? Is it a document I have somehow received from the future, or perhaps from an alternate timeline? Or is it all a long invention by the unknown writer? I can only reproduce the words as I received them, and leave it to you to decide if this whole magnificent story of the rise and fall of an Empire named Atlantis, with its detailed account of the societies, politics, military conquests, arts and languages of a whole Continent, is a true description of a real world of the past

The total land area is 824,268 sq km (318,252 sq mi). The capital of Namibia is Windhoek.

Of the black majority, about two-thirds are Ovambo, with the Kavango, the Herero, the Damara, and the Caprivian peoples following in population size. Other ethnic groups have much smaller populations. Afrikaners and Germans constitute two-thirds and one-fifth of the European population, respectively. Most ethnic Europeans are Namibian citizens, though some have retained South African citizenship. English is the national language, though it is the home language of only about 3 percent of the population. Ovambo languages are spoken by more than 80 percent of the population, followed by Nama-Damara with about 6 percent. Kavango and Caprivian languages and Herero, as well as Afrikaans, constitute about 4 percent of home languages. Many Namibians speak two or more indigenous languages and at least a little of two of the three European languages (English, Afrikaans, German) in common use.
