The California Floristic Province The California Floristic Province is a zone of Mediterranean-type climate and has the high levels of plant endemism characteristic of these regions. The hotspot is home to the giant sequoia, the planet's largest living organism and its taller but less massive relative, the coastal redwood. This region also holds a number of threatened endemic species such as the giant kangaroo rat and the desert slender salamander, and some of the last individuals of the Critically Endangered California condor can still be found here

inhabit what is now Scotland after the end of the Devensian glaciation, the last ice age. Of the Stone Age, Bronze Age, and Iron Age civilization that existed in the territory, many artifacts remain, but few written records were left behind. The recorded history of Scotland begins with the arrival of the Roman Empire in Britain, when the Romans occupied what is now broadly England, Wales and the Scottish Lowlands, administering it as a Roman province called Britannia. To the north was territory not governed by the Romans -- Caledonia, by name. Its people were the Picts. From a classical historical viewpoint Scotland seemed a peripheral country, slow to gain advances filtering out from the Mediterranean fount of civilisation, but as knowledge of the past increases it has become apparent that some developments were earlier and more advanced than previously thought, and that the seaways were very important to Scottish history.
Lawrence River in central Canada. In the east, fishing villages and sandy beaches dot the Atlantic coast. Across the country, Canadians experience many different landscapes from rolling plains and mountains to the cold tundra of the north. Geographically, Canada can be divided into five major regions : the Pacific Region, the Prairie Provinces, Central Canada, the Atlantic Provinces, and the North. The Pacific Region includes Canada's westernmost province, British Columbia. The region is known for its mild coastal climate, its forests, and its spectacular mountains, including the famous Rockies. The Rocky Mountains are the youngest and highest mountains in Canada. British Columbia is in the landform region called the Western Cordillera. ('Cordillera' means a system of mountain ranges). Between the mountain ranges are areas of high plateaus and deep trenches.

History · In pre-Roman times, the Chiltern ridge provided a relatively safe and easily negotiable route across southern Iron Age England, thus the Icknield Way (one of England's ancient trackways) follows the line of the hills. · The name "Chiltern" comes from the Cilternsæte, a tribe that occupied the area in the early Anglo-Saxon period. · One of the principal Roman settlements in the Roman province of Britannia Superior was sited at Verulamium (now St Albans) and there are significant Roman and Romano-British remains in the area. · Use · The hills have been exploited for their natural resources for millennia. The chalk has been quarried for the manufacture of cement, and flint for local building material. The beechwoods of the Chiltern Hills have for centuries fostered the furniture trade, especially chair making

The island is connected to mainland Thailand by two bridges Country : Thailand Capital : Phuket City Area : 576.0 km2 Population : 600,000 (2013) The relatively recent name "Phuket" is apparently derived from the word bukit which means "hill", as this is what the island appears like from a distance. The symbol is a picture of Thao thep kasatri and Thao sri sunthon Heroines Monument. The reason for the use of the pictures of these heroines is because they protected the province from the Burmese in 1785 AD.
