For today's human geography blog, I'm not sure where I'm gonna go with this paragraph because we didn't do much to talk about. Mr. Schick was absent, we had a sub, and were assigned a blog to do in class on "Thinking globally, and acting locally," as explained in the last discussion.

Culture is what makes up a specific region or group of people based on customary beliefs, material traits, and social forms. With the knowledge of the different regions and why they are in that region, it can help us to define what kinds of people may live there. This is what I g...
