Region
Region is an area that is described by its characteristics like favorite
sports, economic organization and language. Every region has its own
favorite sport and that shows the difference and similiarities of the same
sport being played in different countries for example a region has a
different favorite sports the favorite sports are like football, basketball and
cricket etc. Cricket for example is only played in countries where the
british used to rule. In Indonesia where the Dutch ruled for a long time
football is played. A region and country is a part of a world economic
organization, it shows similiar interests among countries that group
together, for example Indonesia is an Asean country and Australia is an
Pacific Islands forum organization, but Australia is a visitor to all ASEAN
meetings. It is through these meetings that Indonesia and Australia talk to
each other on economic interests. A region and country speaks a different
language, a region and country also speaks international languages and
their local languages. For example Australia speaks English and North
America speaks english, so does Malaysia and Singapore because the
British used to rule these two places. In the case of Malaysia English and
Malay is both spoken. In Singapore it is Mandarin and English. In region I
discovered that each and every region and country loves different sports,
has different world economic organization and speaks different languages.
Location
Location is the place where a particular point or object exists there is ways
of finding location some of it are Absolute location, relative location,
latitude and longitude. Absolute location means that it uses adresses and
coordinates it is absolute, for example Global Jaya School is in Indonesia,
Tanggerang, Bintaro, Emerald Boulevard sector 9, and this is an address.
And the coordinates are 61651.81 S 10641 57.77 E. Relative
location means to locate a place that is near to other places, for example
a city is near a forest, a house is near a lake. Latitude and longitude is
used to locate places accurately, For example Jakartas coordinates is:
6.1745 S, 106.8227 E. I discovered that absolute location means that it
uses adresses coordinates etc it is absolute, relative location means to
locate a place that is near to other places and Latitude and longitude is
used to locate places accurately.

Place
A place describes the human and physical characteristics of a location or
an area place describes about the Place, Physical characteristics and
cultural tradition of a location or a point. A place is an area defined by
everything in it, many different factors causes a place to be uniqe, For
example rice growing areas are only on tropical areas and it creates a
special culture which is part of the rice growing tradition. A physical
characteristics of a place is about its structures of what is available on the
land, and the physical characteristics dictated the sort of culture and
tradition that develops in that particular place. For example around mount
Merapi in Yogyakarta the people living on it have a very special
relationship with mount merapi. Cultural traditions develop in different
places is very much influenced by the physical conditions of the area, for
example Cultural tradition in the tropics is influenced by the heat while
culture in cold places is very much influenced by winter. I discovered that
my culture I have been brought up in is very much influenced by the fact
that I live in the tropics and deal with heat everyday, because of it I think
