Region is most commonly a geographical term that is used in various ways among the different branches of geography. In general, a region may be seen as a collection of smaller units (as in "the New England states") or as one part of a larger whole (as in "the New England region of the United States"). Regions can be defined by physical characteristics, human characteristics, and functional characteristics. As a way of describing spatial areas, the concept of regions is important and widely used among the many branches of geography, each of which can describe areas in regional terms. For example, ecoregion is a term used in environmental geography, cultural region in cultural geography, bioregion in biogeography, and so on. The field of geography that studies regions themselves is called regional geography. In the fields of physical geography, ecology, biogeography, zoogeography, and environmental geography, regions tend to be based on natural features such as ecosystems or biotopes, biomes, drainage basins, mountain ranges, soil types.

How did human communities populate the major regions of the world and adapt to the environments? Asked by MusicIsMyLife - Sun Nov 22 11:09:57 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. No-one really knows. The scientific answer that most people use is that the human race originally evolved from the region which would become Africa. Early in the history of Earth, a massive super-continent called Pangaea broke into the separate continents as a result of tectonic activity. It is often thought that during this slow separation, colonies of hominids (early humans) may have moved onto land masses which would eventually become separated continents. There are various theories to explain why we all look different, and why our ancestors may have come from Africa alone. Look at some of the links below to explore this further!

Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver are set in the Johto Region as they are remakes of the original Silver and Gold games from the second generation. They are associated with the fourth generation and include many third and fourth generation Pokemon between the two games (Sableye, Baltoy, Claydol, Mantyke, Gliscor and Kyogre in HeartGold, Mawile, Swalot, Gulpin, and Groudon in SoulSilver, Skitty, Salamence, and many more in both) and even add new areas to the Johto region. Like the premakes, the player can travel to Kanto as well and obtain a Kanto starter Pokemon.
