  1. BOUNDARIES. EVOLUTIONOVERTIMEINNUMEROUSWAYS. By: Michelle Arevalo, Teanah Owens, Jennifer Colclough, Alana Patino

  2.         i. Subsequent         ii. Antecedent          iii. Superimposed         iv. relict                     TYPES OF BOUNDARIES.

  3. SUBSEQUENT Definition: A political boundary that developed contemporaneously with the evolution of the major elements of the cultural landscapes though which it passes. Example: The border between China and Vietnam, as a  result of a long term process of adjustment and  modification.

  4. ANTECEDENT Definition: #1) Political boundary that existed before the cultural landscape emerged and stayed in place while people moved in to occupy the surrounding area.  #2) Certain boundaries that were defined and delimited before the present day human landscape was developed. Example: #1) The border between Malaysia and Indonesia on the island of Borneo. #2) The 49th parallel boundary, dividing the United  States and Canada between the pacific ocean and Lake  Of The Woods in northern most Minnesota.

  5. SUPERIMPOSED Definition: A political boundary placed by powerful outsiders on a developed human landscape. Example: In the center of the island of New Guinea and separates Indonesia's west Papua from the country of Papua  New Guinea.

  6. RELICT Definition: A political boundary that has ceased to function but the imprint of which can still be detected on the cultural landscape. Example: The boundary between former North Vietnam and Southern Vietnam. (Once demarcated militarily, it has relict status  since 1976 following the reunification of Vietnam at the  end of the Indochina War. 1964-1975)

  7. AFFECTS OF SUPERIMPOSED BOUNDARIES "Eight civilians were killed in clashes with police in two provincial towns in the past 24 hours, the Tunisian government said on Sunday, the deadliest incidents yet in an unprecedented wave of unrest." (telegraph.org) The unrest came along with the new government that apparently witnesses say, "Has provided a lack of jobs and investment." Officials however, disagree and say, "The rioting is the work of a minority of extremists intent on damaging Tunisia. " "Government officials did not respond to phone calls seeking comment on the casualties. Staff at the local hospital in Rgeb refused to answer  questions. Unrest in the past few days in neighbouring Algeria over unemployment and food prices has killed two people and injured hundreds, officials said. The violence in Algeria appeared to have subsided on Sunday and there was no evidence of any link to the Tunisian unrest."
