Answer to Question 1

All the physical features that characterize the surface of a geographic region constitute its topography. The topography of an area can serve to promote or weaken subcultures. On the one hand, physically separating topography can reinforce subcultures and help keep them isolated by inhibiting communication. For example, mountain ranges and the formidable Gobi Desert consume two-thirds of China's land surface. Groups living in the valleys of these mountain ranges hold on to their own ways of life and speak their own languages.
At the same time, topography that promotes communication can enhance cultural diffusion. Some surface features such as navigable rivers and flat plains facilitate travel and contact with others and can potentially lead to more uniformity among cultural groups.

Answer to Question 2

A
