FANTASTIC WORLDS FROM THE LANDS OF THE NORTH.

Dear boys,

a few days ago we discussed the analysis of sub-Arctic landscape. Most of northern Europe is characterized by a particularly cold climate. It is not densely populated lands.

Lapps

In Scandinavian countries, the population of Sami reindeer husbandry practice. The men also work on fishing vessels that allow farm-processing and freezing fish. A typical product of these areas is the cod consumed along with the appropriately salted cod. A distinctive feature of the landscape is the forest which is very useful for working with wood. The logs are transported through the waterways with a system of rafting. According to oral tradition Nordic, the workers of the wood are often enchanted by the spirit of beautiful women cause disorientation of men. But these women can help them return home if they agree to hack a cross on the bark of a tree.

Since ancient times, especially during the Middle Ages, it is said that there are secluded places inhabited by witches.

Some of the trees are typical of Sweden, for example, larch, oak and birch. Local people believe that these plants harboring or are themselves protectors of the inhabitants of the nearby farms. At the foot of these trees-spirit is coated in butter and poured beer. Near the Their trunks stand the tombs of their ancestors. Then there arise great treasures buried, but the spirit warriors threaten anyone who tries to steal them. The spirits of the ancestors protect, instead, families and all generations together with the property. The forest is also inhabited by evil spirits that can be very unpleasant to encounter humans and cause trouble for the unlucky. Sometimes these wicked spirits seem to enjoy themselves at night to announce the death of a family member.

Trolls

most popular in our latitudes are, however, the trolls and the giants who are taking the likeness of men or animals. The giants and trolls are not pleasant creatures to see, but many have magical powers that carry away from sunlight. The sun's rays cause the loss of power. The mountains are just trolls who have been petrified to have seen the light of the sun. All these creatures can be very helpful and friendly, if treated with due courtesy, but very mischievous if undervalued or irritated skin.

The legends are a way to account for human survival in zones where the climate and landscape that can be defined as hostile and sometimes make them rather fascinating.

CONTINENTAL LANDSCAPE.

The continental landscape occupies the entire area of \u200b\u200bCentral Europe. This is a man-made and highly urbanized landscape whose businesses revolve around coal deposits that are useful in replacing oil extraction in recent years is increasingly expensive. A major economic importance in Central and Eastern European region is covered by the Silesian coal. This is one of the most industrialized regions of Poland.

Germany, by contrast, has a steel industry is very developed. From the manufacture of iron get the steel.

The intense process of industrialization has made these highly polluted areas of Europe and characterized by the damaging phenomenon of acid rain. This is where the high rainfall acidity is caused by the entry in 'atmosphere of large quantities of harmful gases such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides from processing of coal. These are gases that, when they come into contact with water vapor in the air, they become sulfuric acid and nitric acid. The latter reaches the surface run-off water and cause damage to lakes, rivers, crops and landmarks.

Many rivers of central Europe are wholly or only partly navigable and connected by a system of canals.

W MILLS AND TULIPS.

Tulips

Landscape in Atlantic Europe, an area characterized

Atlantic (coasts of Spain and France) and eastern area (ribs Belgium, Netherlands and Germany). The large presence of water has made the talented Dutch navigators. The Dutch capital, Amsterdam is called, has been dubbed the "Venice of the North". Have always been a symbol of Dutch windmills. But Holland is famous worldwide for the export of tulips. This flower is from Afghanistan and Pakistan. The Turks called him lale ie " flower of Allah" and considered him a lucky charm. The flower became a luxury item. The tulip arrived in Europe via the merchants in 1500 and Holland became exporter. A century later, the tulips were even quoted the Amsterdam Stock Exchange. Today there are many varieties grown in special greenhouses and, by crosses, they are always inventing new ones.

"FOOD MATCHES" of civilizations': CITRUS, Agave and prickly pear.

Many plants that are now characteristic of the Mediterranean landscape plants are not European. Citrus fruits were introduced in Sicily by the Arabs. The sour orange was used for ornamental purposes well before the more sweet and edible. Agaves and prickly pears are native plants of America that you are adapting well because they need little water.
