When we want to learn about a certain country, city, region, etc., we use
the Five Themes of Geography. For each of the Five Themes, each pair
should come up with a scrapbook that serves as the answer to the
following questions about a particular country or region:

o Location
o Where is the place (in terms of longitude, latitude, continent, and
hemisphere)?
o How far away from home is it (how long is travel time by plane, and
how far is the distance in miles or kilometers)?
o What are the neighboring countries?

mountains, rivers, deserts)?
o How can the people live her be described (include details such as the
type of government, nationalities, culture and traditions, etc.)?
