Cultural Patterns & Landscapes
Language
In Chad, there is a Creole called Sango, it isn't used as much now, but it was around 1998. Right now, the primary language in Chad is French, so a lingua franca isn't required anymore. Landscapes effected Chad's language because the citizens were colonized by France because of their geographical location and how close they are to France. |
Geography
The geography in Chad definitely contributes to its cultural patterns. Mainly, the geography effects how the citizens there farm and what they can farm. |
Religion
Geographic maps can show religious diffusion because of the limits of religious diffusion, if a religion started in Asia, then it probably wouldn't have spread too far from the hearth, like buddhism. Buddhism originated in Northeast India and now it's mainly practiced in Thailand, Vietnam, China, etc. It has spread very little to other countries and the most concentrated amount of believers is close to the origin of the religion. |
Colonialism
Chad was colonized by France and that now effects their daily life, first of all their main language has changed to French. Secondly, they now receive foreign aide from the United Nations. |
