Historical Significance of Great Wall of China: Wanted to keep barbarians out, kept China even more isolated
Benefits of terraced farming: Makes more land arable by farming on a slope
Physical features that contributed to China’s isolation: oceans and mountains
Japanese adaptations: Skyscrapers on gyroscopes and earthquake, tsunami drills

Human Environment Interaction in Southeast/ East Asia
• Problems: Lack of arable land and tectonic activity• Modifications• Lack of arable land: Terraced farming• Tectonic activity: Strict building codes, disaster drills,
skyscrapers on gyroscopes• The modification would have to be used in a developed
area because the methods are expensive and the infrastructure needed does not exist in a developing area
• The Three Gorges Dam is both positive and negative, positive: more shipping, negative: floods villages

Population in East/South East Asia
• Country: China• Problem: Overpopulation• Solution: Incentive (money) to not have more then 1 kid
(urban) and fines for those who disobey these practices worked to a certain extent as the population did decrease but it instead lead to a extreme boom of men in the population
• Negative of Overpopulation: Lack of jobs for people • Negative of Graying Population: Lack of people for jobs

Communism in East/Southeast Asia
• Timeline• First: Cold War, many countries turned communist• Next: Korean War: Separated Korea into North and South Korea,
north being communist, south being democratic• Last: Vietnam War: Separated Vietnam into North and South
Vietnam, north being communist, south being democratic and eventually North Vietnam takes over South Vietnam and Vietnam is now one communist nation.
• The effects of the spread of communism: the government became communist and controlled everything, people have limited or no freedoms under communist rule, and the economy can’t grow, it’ll be bad.
