8 Salloum 1 Key Issue 3: Why is Popular Culture Widely Distributed? Popular culture varies more in time than in place. Popular culture begins in one location, like folk culture, but diffuses rapidly across earth to locations with a variety of physical conditions. Rapid diffusion depends on a group of people having high level of economic development. Diffusion of Popular Housing, Clothing, and Food Some regional differences in food, clothing and shelter continue to persist in MDCs. Popular Housing Styles Housing built in the U.S. since the 1940s demonstrates how popular customs vary more in time than in place.

CHAPTER 3 MIGRATION Introduction Geographers document from where people migrate and to where they migrate. They also study reasons why people migrate. In the United states, the average family moves once every six years. Most people migrate in search of economic opportunity, cultural freedom, and environmental comfort. The difference between the number of immigrants and the member of emigrants is the net migration. Local diversity is the migration of people of similar cultural values. Migration is a form of relocation diffusion, but reasons for migrating can be gained from expansion diffusion. Case Study: Migration from Ukraine to Italy Legal and illegal immigrants have been pouring into Western Europe by the millions. Most of them come from Africa, Asia, and Eastern Europe.

Introduction
By the middle of the ninth century C.E., the Abbasid dynasty had begun to lose control over its empire. Rebellious states, military regimes, and religious dissenters broke apart the political unity of Islam. Mongol armies finally conquered the steadily diminishing Abbasid heartland in the 13th century C.E. Although the political unity of Islam was forever shattered, the last centuries of Abbasid rule witnessed a period of cultural creativity and the expansion of Islam into South and Southeast Asia and Africa.

Chapter 2 New Civilizations in the Eastern and Western Hemispheres, 2200-250 B.C.E. Notes Chapter Thesis: In contrast to the river-valley civilizations of Mesopotamia, Egypt and the Indus Valley surveyed in the previous chapter, the complex societies examined in this chapter subsequently emerge in ecological conditions quite a bit more diverse, sometimes independently, sometimes under the influence of older centers. Whereas the river-valley civilizations were originally largely self-sufficient, each of the new civilizations discussed in this chapter and the next was shaped by the development of networks of long distance trade. Early China, 2000-221 B.C.E.
