BASIC Geography
BASIC Geography
ver. 1.30
Business 187 assumes students have learned some basic geography in middle school and high school, and from reading periodicals, exploring the Web, and talking to friends. This sheet lists nations, cities, etc., whose locations I will assume you know. If you don’t know where they are, you can the countries in a printed atlas or the web site . (Clicking on the continent or region that contains a city or nation listed below on the main sitesatlas world map will usually bring up a map on which you can find what you’re looking for.) Using one of the excellent atlases in the Martin Luther King library is even better. If you have trouble finding anything, please see the instructor.
