Question

Give a geographical reason:

Regional development is dependent on the physiography of a region.

Answer 1

1. The possibilities and limits for development in an area are set by factors such as its location, climate, topography, elevation, soil, water supply, proximity to the sea, and so on.
2. The area has greater growth potential because of its pleasant climate. For instance, the Mediterranean area. A place with a harsh or unclean climate, on the other hand, is slower to grow. For instance, the area around the Congo River.
3. There is much more development in the coastal, river plain, and fertile soil areas. For instance, the area around the Ganga River. Mountains, deserts, and dense woods, on the other hand, are still behind. For instance, the hilly area of the Himalayas.
4. Thus, regional development is dependent on the physical setting.
