Plutarch states in his "Solon" that after the rebellion of Kylon in 612
B.C. the Athenian people were divided into as many political factions as
there were physical types of country in Attica. The mountaineers, who
were the poorest party, wanted something like a democracy; the people of
the plains, comprising the greatest number of rich families, were
clamorous for an oligarchy; the coast population of the south,
intermediate both in social position and wealth, wanted something
between the two. The same three-fold division appeared again in 564 B.C.
on the usurpation of Peisistratus.[27] Here the connection between
geographic condition and political opinion is clear enough, though the
links are agriculture and commerce. New England's opposition to the War
of 1812, culminating in the threat of secession of the Hartford
Convention, can be traced back through the active maritime trade to the
broken coastline and unproductive soil of that glaciated country. |

Most lakes have fish of peculiar species, as the lake Baikal. The fishes
of the great interalpine Lake of Titicaca amount to 7 or 8 species, and
belong to genera only found in the higher regions of the Andes. In the
North American lakes there is a thick-scaled fish, analogous to those of
the early geological eras; and the gillaroo trout, which is remarkable
in having a gizzard, is found in Ireland only. Pike and salmon are the
only species of fresh-water fish common to Europe and North America; the
pike is, however, unknown west of the Rocky Mountains. The common salmon
does not exist beyond 45° of N. lat. on the eastern coast of America,
and it is probably confined within similar limits on the eastern coast
of Asia. It is said to be an inhabitant of all the northern parts of the
old world from the entrance of the Bay of Biscay to North Cape, and
along the arctic shores of Asia and Kamtchatka to the Sea of Okhotsk,
including the Baltic, White Sea, Gulf of Kara, and other inlets. Other
kinds of the Salmon tribe are plentiful in the estuaries of Kamtchatka
and on the opposite coast of America down to Oregon, but apparently they
do not extend to China. Salmon go up rivers to spawn, and make
extraordinary leaps over impediments of rocks or walls, in order to
reach the suitable places for depositing their eggs. Forty-four fish
inhabit the British lakes and rivers, and 50 those of Scandinavia, of
the very best kinds. The fresh-water fish of northern climates are
better than those of the southern. |

In the Nubian and Libyan deserts, to the east of the Sahara, the
continent shelves down towards the Mediterranean in a series of
terraces, consisting of vast level sandy or gravelly deserts, lying east
and west, separated by low rocky ridges. This shelving country, which is
only 540 feet above the sea at the distance of 750 miles inland, is cut
transversely by the Nile, and by a deep furrow parallel to it, in which
there is a long line of oases. This furrow, the Nile, and the Red Sea,
nearly parallel to both, are flanked by rocky eminences which run north
from the table-land. |

Politically, Switzerland is a republic, having the position of a
"buffer" state between Germany, Italy, France, and Austria-Hungary.
Racially, the state is divided among Italians, French, and Germans; as a
matter of fact, however, the old Helvetian spirit, which not even Cæsar
could destroy, is still a great factor in dominating the people; this,
with their montane environment, gives the Swiss a very positive
nationality. |

The gradual decrease in the production of the silver mines near the
present site of Ergasteria proved a beginning of the fall of Athens; and
when gold was discovered in the Perim Mountains of Macedonia, the seat
of Greek power moved thither. Philip of Macedon hoarded the treasure
from the mines of Pangæus, and with the capital thus acquired his son,
Alexander the Great, conquered the East, implanted Hellenic business
methods there, and drew the various trade routes between Europe and Asia
under one control. |

- Economy
Overview: Over the past decade the economy has registered a remarkable
performance because of the development of an offshore oil industry. Real
GDP growth annually averaged 10% from 1978 to 1985. In 1986 Cameroon had one of
the highest levels of income per capita in tropical Africa, with oil revenues
picking up the slack as growth in other sectors softened. Because of the sharp
drop in oil prices, however, the economy is now experiencing serious budgetary
difficulties and balance-of-payments disequalibrium. Oil reserves currently
being exploited will be depleted in the early 1990s, so ways must be found to
boost agricultural and industrial exports in the medium term. The Sixth
Cameroon Development Plan (1986-91) stresses balanced development and designates
agriculture as the basis of the country's economic future. |

It was regarded as a stimulant and therefore it was forbidden to
followers of Islam.[34] But its power to prevent drowsiness and sleep
during the intolerably long religious exercises was a winning feature,
and so its use became general in spite of the fulminations against it. |

Clearly and a gem, singly and all four, the stem, the stone the happy
way, the single blessing of the longing soon, the patent habit of the
leaving of the room, all this and no white light is not more dim than
every candle and many of them make the illumination gentler, they
dwindle in large, they season the sun, they blossom the churn, they
bestow in a plant. This was no sprain, this was the regal pin. |
Education, education, apprenticeship, and all the meeting of nephews and
trains and changing papers and remaining when there is no chance to go
there, all this occupied a whole sentence. It is a shame that there is
not such an only use for that, it is a shame and there is no indignation
more indignant. Everything is an indication of the simple remedy that is
applied when there is no refusal and no application. Every thing which
shows that is not tied with a string or any little string. All the same
there is not much of a remedy. |
