  1. 1. The chief mountain range to be found in Bhutan is Alps Himalayas.
    2.From the video, identify one unique significant thing that I have learned about Bhutan is this area’s King,he didn’t want their region to prosper economically, he wanted to preserve its culture. Compare with other countries, other countries will want to develop their own contries so that people can know them better and potect their culture.
    3. The country was never colonised by Britain but its forces were defeated in North Bengal and Bhutan was forced to sign a treaty which gave British control of its foreign relations.

    Bhutan has not been any real sense of colonial. 1864 In November, Bhutan and Britain broke out a large-scale conflict, known as the “war Dua Wales”, Bhutan was completely defeated, was forced to cede the equivalent of 7% of the entire land territory, but Britain each year to Bhutan provide subsidies. In 1910, the UK in order to meddle in Tibet to further strengthen the control of Bhutan, Bhutan then forced to sign a new treaty, promised non-interference in the internal affairs of Bhutan, Bhutan’s Foreign Affairs to accept the British “guidance”, allowance benefit is doubled.

  4. 1.The chief mountain range of Bhutan is the Himalayas Alps.
    2.Bhutan is a country with a king. When this country faces rapid globalization in the 21st century, Bhutanese take actions to maintain and protect its unique Buddhist culture. This is different from other countries, and other countries want their own country. The rapid development is in line with technology.
    3. Bhutan is largely isolated from the rest of the world.So Bhutan did not colonized by other countries.
    4. African-Americans are clustered in the Southeast
    Hispanics in the Southwest,
    Asian-Americans in the West,
    American Indians in the Southwest and Plains states.

  5. 1.The chief mountain range to be found in Bhutan is Alps Himalayas.
    2. The one special thing that I find out in Bhutan is the King is always leaking and mixing with people, and he gives up the absolute power to bring democracy to his people which impossibly happens in other countries. The highest leader in others is always busy with their work but not staying with his citizens.
    3. Bhutan is one of only a few countries which has been independent throughout her history, never conquered, occupied, or governed by an outside power . Although there has been speculation that it was under the Kamarupa Kingdom or the Tibetan Empire in the 7th to 9th centuries, firm evidence is lacking. Bhutan has continuously and successfully defended its sovereignty.
    4. African American: African-Americans are clustered in the Southeast. 76 percent of people cluster in the Virgin Islands, about 80 thousands. 47.2 percent of them cluster in the District of Columbia, about 330 thousands.

    Hispanic Latina: most of them clustered in the southwest about 1 third of the population of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.

    Asian American: California.About one-half of the Asian American population lived in the West, with California having the most total Asian Americans of any state, at 4.2 million.

    American Indian/Alaska Native: Clustered in the southwest and north-central regions of the United States. New York City has exceeded Los Angeles as the city with the largest population of Native Americans in the country.
