It requires four hours driving to reach the capital city Riyadh. Its weather is inflexible as it is hot in the summer and dusty, cold in the winter and rainy, it could be describing freezing. Half of the territory’s land is agricultural land as it has an abundance of underground water; there are many palms wherever you looked. The capital city in this territory is Buraidah.

It lies in the southwest of Buraidah and north of the capital Riyadh. It has some infrastructural facilities such as a police station, court, and one hospital. Moreover, some clinics cover some of the hospital sections like clinic dental and birth. In addition, it has a financial ministry and a post office.

I think this means that he reaches out to people who are going to attempt to make the kingdom grow.

  • Analysis Of 'Where College Fails Us' By Caroline Bird

    The Greek Philosopher Aristotle identified “The years between puberty and age twenty-one as the formative time for mind and character.” It was customary for young Greek men to attend a series of lectures that resembled our notion of a college “course”(Delbanco 36). Aristotle is a believer of education and the power it has on the development of the young mind. Likewise, he believes college is a place to establish one’s character. Caroline Bird’s essay, “Where College Fails Us,” definitely does not correlate with the opinion of Aristotle.

  • College In America By Caroline Bird Analysis

    “College in America” Caroline Bird thinks that a college education may not be the best choice for all high school students because college education does not bring about social equality, it does not benefit them financially, and it is not guaranteed that college will lead them to an elite profession. First of all, high school students are expected to bring about social equality through four rigorous years in college. However, college is an expensive way to categorize the highs and lows in society. It is pressuring to younger students to pursue a higher education that only a few could achieve, and is also difficult for them to established an identity in society. Second, a college education does not benefit the youth financially because it is

Europe was economically superior to some places, but others such of China were as good, or if not than even better than Europe.

    With great detail, it provides an accurate perspective of the education experience one might expect from a university and from a community college. Furthermore, I felt the essay contrasts the old style college experience with modern day community college life in a way that reminds us not every college student has the privilege of being able to afford to attend an expensive 4-year university. When Addison talks about how the college experience Perlstein describes is that of “his own nostalgia,” I also felt that that Perlstein’s experience is no longer indicative of the modern educational experience that students obtain today at the many community colleges (1). I would have to agree with Addison’s statement, “My guess, reading between the lines, is that Mr. Perlstein has never set foot in an American community college”

    Geography not only plays a part in the spread of a religion but also can be inspiration or reflection for the religion itself. Many societies have numerous deities inspired by the landscape in and around their civilization. However, I believe not all religions drew inspiration from the land they lived in. Mesopotamian societies had multiple gods. Most deities represented cosmic forces of nature such as the sun, moon, water, and storms who were responsible for the creation of the earth (World Societies p. 36).
