    Physical geography is regions divided by geographic areas (N.America, Middle east,

    political regions is regions divided by state (S.Africa,Spain)

    cultural regions is divided by people (tribes, religion) (Suni vs Shitte)

    economic regions is divided by progress, GDP(developing vs developed)

    I learned this in a geography class. The most conflicts in Africa is caused by political boundaries imposing on cultural regions. Enemy tribes are located in the same country which causes civil unrest.

    I believe I'm tolerant towards most people about many things, firstly because i am very openminded. I understand that not everybody has been made the same, brought up the same, or lived the same. Secondly, I am able to seperate my personal beliefs or perceptions from the issue at hand - whether it be religious, cultural, to do with ability/disability or something as simple as taste in food or music - by doing that, I am able to be unbiased in my views and opinions. I do not refrain from speaking my mind but I also take into consideration what I am saying if there's a chance that i'll needlessly offend or bring a person down. Everyone is entitled to some dignity and respect, which nowadays nobody is willing to give yet they're expecting to recieve just that. It really frustrates me how many people will complain about something such as a person or certain race hating them yet they begin hating right back - can't anybody see the irony? So to sum it up, each individual can only see the world through their eyes, if you can't be tolerant of others than it's as good as living your life with your eyes wide shut.
