Today in class we watched more of the video which took a decent fifteen minutes to load. We also talked about how animals played a big part in the early days of the world. They used all different types of animals to do some many different things. They used cows to plow fields, for fur, milk, and for meat too. They used pigs that could be used for meat and small labor. They would primary use animals that could provide them with the most work and goods and usually were feed by grass.

Today in class we talked about the Guns Germs And Steel video. We talked about how racial inequality possibly started because of the nutrient advancment and because some people were stuck in an endless cycle of trying to get food and not being able to store any and having a surplus they werent able to advance as well as other nations. So thats why some racrial inequality started because when some europeans came to toher lands that were smaller or not as advanced and saw that they had less technology than them they thought they were inferior to them and that the euorpean/ cacausion race was better

urban geography

City= a conglomeration of people/buildings clustered together to serve as a center of politics, culture, and economics.
Urban= the build up of the central city and the suburban realm- the city and the surrounding environs connected to the city

Facts:
Almost half(50%) of the Earth's population live in urban areas/cites.
A rural area can become urbanized quite quickly in the modern world.
Shenzhen, China is an example of a rural area becoming urbanized very quickly. It only took 25 years for that area to totally change.

The first urban revolution:
Before urbanized people often clustered in agricultural villages
