Historical definitions of race
Some scientists spoke of three races of mankind: The Caucasian race living in Europe, North Africa and West Asia, the Mongoloid race living in East Asia, Australia, and the Americas, and the Negroid race living in Africa south of the Sahara. Other scientists had different ideas and spoke of four or five races. These ideas were popular from the late 18th century to the middle of the 20th century. Because these ideas belong to former times, they are called historical definitions of race or historical race concepts.
Today, scientists agree that there is only one human race. Modern genetic research has shown that the idea of three (or four, or five) races was wrong.
Johann Friedrich Blumenbach's classification, first proposed in 1779, was widely used in the 19th century, with many variations.
The mid-twentieth century racial classification by American anthropologist Carleton S. Coon, divided humanity into five races:
There was much prejudice based upon this way of looking at the world. The Europeans and Asians both regarded themselves as superior to the other skin colors. Racism, a non-scientific theory or ideology, was that a particular race was superior or inferior. It argued that in the races that make up the human race, there are deep, biologically determined differences. It also states races should live separately and not intermarry. A supporter of racism is called a racist. These attitudes in turn supported the horrors of African slavery, Apartheid, the Jim Crow laws, Nazism and Japanese imperialism.
Borealis Basin
The Borealis Basin, also known as the North Polar Basin is a large depression or basin in the northern hemisphere of Mars. It covers 40% of the planet. Some scientists think the basin formed during the impact of a single, large body (~2% the mass of Mars) with a diameter of about 1,900 km (1,200 miles). However, the basin is not currently called an impact basin by the IAU. The basin is one of the flattest areas in the Solar System. The landing site of the Viking 1 lander is a bay that opens into this basin.

List of counties of New Brunswick
This is a list of the counties in the Canadian province of New Brunswick, with population and county seats (known in the province as shire towns).
Before New Brunswick was split from Nova Scotia, it was made up of Cumberland and Sunbury Counties. Counties were at the top of a three-layer local government system. Below each county were parishes (townships), Some, but not all, parishes were then further subdivided into municipalities. The exception to this was the municipality of Saint John which was not in a parish but was a sub-division of Saint John County.
With the New Brunswick Equal Opportunity program in 1966, county councils were shut down. Counties continue to be used as an organizational unit, along with parishes, for registration of real-estate and its taxation. They figure prominently in residents' sense of place and continue as significant threads in the Province's culture (i.e., most citizens always know which county they are in). They still appear on most maps.
