Great Lakes
The main business of many of the passenger lines in the 19th century was transporting immigrants . Many of the larger cities owe their existence to their position on the lakes as a freight destination as well as for being a magnet for immigrants . After railroads and surface roads developed , the freight and passenger businesses dwindled and , except for ferries and a few foreign cruise ships , has now vanished . The immigration routes still have an effect today . Immigrants often formed their own communities and some areas have a pronounced ethnicity , such as Dutch , German , Polish , Finnish , and many others . Since many immigrants settled for a time in New England before moving westward , many areas on the U.S. side of the Great Lakes also have a New England feel , especially in home styles and accent .

Great Lakes region
The Palaeozoic strata , are but parts of a great area of similar strata hundreds of feet in thickness . These strata decline gently southward from the great upland of the Laurentian Highlands of eastern Canada . The visible upland area of today was but a small part of the primeval continent with the remainder of it still buried under a Palaeozoic cover . The visible part was the last part of the primeval continent to sink under the advancing Palaeozoic seas . When the upland and its overlap of stratified deposits were elevated again , the overlapping strata must have had the appearance of a coastal plain . Of course that was long ago ; since then the strata have eroded substantially and today possess neither the area nor the smooth form of their initial extent . This district may be considered an ancient coastal plain . As is always the case in the broad denudation of the gently inclined strata of such plains , the weaker layers are worn down in sub-parallel belts of lower land between the upland and the belts of more resistant strata , which rise in uplands .

Love lock
Authorities in Canberra , Australia , decided in February 2015 to remove love locks from a bridge that was becoming a popular location to affix them , and from other locations in Canberra . Justifications given for the decision were the possibility of future threats to public safety from eventual overloading of the bridge with a mass of padlocks , and structural interference resulting from corrosion . A bridge in Paris was mentioned by authorities as an example of an overloaded bridge , a probable reference to the Pont des Arts .

Aftermath of the Korean War
Also , the anti-communist atmosphere in the West in response to the Korean War contributed to the unwillingness to diplomatically recognize the People 's Republic of China until the 1970s . In that time , the Republic of China ( ROC ) was recognized by the U.S. as ' the ' legitimate Chinese government , and that in turn allowed Taiwan to develop politically , militarily , and economically . The result has been that , today , any effort by the PRC to invade the island , or otherwise coerce the people there into an arrangement of political unity with the Communist controlled mainland , would be difficult at best to accomplish , and may be impossible without a great deal of bloodshed . While economic ties between the PRC and ROC have grown immensely since the 1990s , thus achieving a degree of interdependency that would have been unimaginable even twenty years ago ; political diplomacy between the ROC and mainland China remains strained , and successive governments in Taiwan have consistently , if sometimes obliquely , signaled their determination to remain independent for the foreseeable future .

Since then , the Matterhorn has become a reference that still inspires graphic artists today and has been used extensively for all sort of publicity and advertising .

Ryukyu Islands
Today , numerous issues arise from Okinawan history . Some Ryukyuans and some Japanese feel that people from the Ryukyus are different from the majority Yamato people . Some natives of the Ryukyus claim that the central government is discriminating against the islanders by allowing so many American soldiers to be stationed on bases in Okinawa with a minimal presence on the mainland . Additionally , there is some discussion of secession from Japan . As the territorial dispute between China and Japan over the Senkaku Islands intensified in the early 21st century , Communist Party of China - backed scholars published essays calling for a reexamination of Japan 's sovereignty over the Ryukyus . In 2013 The New York Times described the comments by said scholars as well as military figures as appearing to constitute `` a semiofficial campaign in China to question Japanese rule of the islands '' , noting that `` almost all the voices in China pressing the Okinawa issue are affiliated in some way with the government '' .

Iconostasis also refers to a portable icon stand that can be placed anywhere within a church . The modern iconostasis evolved from the Byzantine templon in the 11th century . The evolution of the iconostasis probably owes a great deal to 14th - century Hesychast mysticism and the wood - carving genius of the Russian Orthodox Church .
