    http://www.highlandsnsw.com.au/past_present/geography.html
    Geography of the Highlands PALEOGRAPHY: Australia is the oldest of continents. After Antarctica, it is the smallest (at 8.5 million square kilometres - 3700kms north to south, and 4000 kms east to west). It is the only continent containing just one nation (although in the past there were hundreds of smaller aboriginal nations before European settlement: two co-existed here in the Highlands area). Originally part of the super land mass Gondwanaland some 500 million years ago (Cambrian Period), it was formed after the movement of the earth's tectonic plates, travelling north, then finally separating about 95 million years ago. The continent is still drifting about 7 cms a year towards Asia - something which saves the airlines a few cups of fuel each year! Over hundreds of millions of years, various parts of the continent were under the sea - which explains why you can find seashells and marine fossils in rocks on top of present day mountains. Most of the land under the Highlands is sandstone, therefore once ocean floor. Sandstone is still quarried today in Bundanoon. About 300 million years ago (Carboniferous Period), glaciers covered part of the eastern shore and ice sheets the south.

    Gibraltar
    Geography, Population, Languages
    The Gibraltar Peninsula is situated at the southernmost tip of Spain and faces North Africa some 32 km across the Straits of Gibraltar. The area of Gibraltar is 6 sq. km. and its population is 30,000. It is a bilingual country where both English and Spanish are spoken, though English is considered the official language of commerce and law. back
    History, Political Structure and Law
    Gibraltar has been a British Colony since 1704. In 1713 Spain formally ceded it under the terms of the Treaty of Utrecht. However, according to the Constitution of 1965, the Colony possesses its own authorised Government. Gibraltar is politically and economically a stable country. Although Spain still maintains territorial claims over Gibraltar the British Government, having had a special interest in Gibraltar for so long, has undertaken not to place the people of Gibraltar under the sovereignty of another state without their free will and democratic consent. Britain maintains responsibility for defence and foreign affairs, but local matters, including company and taxation law, are the preserves of a locally elected House of Assembly. The House of Assembly consists of 15 democratic members and several unofficial members, a Prosecutor General and a Financial Secretary.

    Procedure
    Direct the students attention to the classroom world map. Have a student locate the country of Italy and the city of Rome on the map. Tell the students that some of the geographical features of the land on which Rome was built made its location a wise place to build a city. Explain that Rome is built on hills alongside which a river flows. Have the students think about why the hills and the river made for a good place to build a city. Ask: What would be the benefits of living in a city that had high points from which you could see surrounding areas? (From a hill, they would be able to see enemies approaching.) What would be beneficial about living in a city that was next to a river? (travel by boat, water for drinking, bathing and farming) Give each student a map and have them follow along as you locate countries and geographical features on the classroom world map.

    Bodies of Water Oceans and Seas
    Oceans
    and seas are large bodies of salt water. The difference between the two is that a sea is smaller than an ocean, and is generally surrounded by land. The four oceans are the Atlantic , the Pacific , the Indian , and the Arctic . An example of a sea would be the Red Sea which lies between Africa and Asia in the Middle East. Oceans and Seas have positive and negative effects on human civilization. They often act as a barrier to both cultural diffusion and invasion . However, many civilizations developed good sea travel and were able to overcome this effect. Great Britain, Portugal, Spain, Greece, the Roman Empire , the Netherlands, Early China, and Japan all were major naval powers at one time or another. In fact, for many of these civilizations, oceans and seas acted as highways of trade , cultural diffusion, and invasion . Oceans and seas also provide a rich source of food and other resources , such as minerals and oil . Many of the above mentioned cultures developed major fishing industries as a way to feed their populations. Countries like Japan have a diet composed mainly of sea products and farmed vegetables. Great Britain, in the twentieth century, began drilling for undersea oil off the north shore of Scotland. Today, this valuable resource provides much of their energy needs.
