MindMap Gallery inhabitants of the world
The knowledge points of the first volume of junior high school geography are about the inhabitants of the world. These knowledge points help students understand the basic situation of the inhabitants of the world and understand the impact of population growth and distribution on the environment and social economy.

inhabitants of the world
Two sets of concepts about population
natural population growth rate
Formula: birth rate - death rate, unit: % or ‰
Meaning: The natural population growth rate is greater than 0, indicating positive growth, equal to 0, indicating zero growth, and less than 0, indicating negative growth.
Description language: Indicates how fast or slow the population of a certain place is growing.
The natural growth rate of population is closely related to the level of economic development: Generally speaking, countries with a high level of economic development have a slower natural population growth rate; countries with a low level of economic development have a faster natural population growth rate.
Population density
Formula: total population/total area, unit: person/km²
Meaning: How many people live within 1 square kilometer
Description language: Indicates the density of population distribution in a certain place
Two characteristics of the population
Characteristics of world population growth
Before 1800 AD, the world's population grew very slowly. After that, the world's population entered a period of rapid growth.
At present, the world's population has exceeded 8 billion and is still growing at a rapid rate.
Characteristics of world population distribution
Generally speaking, the world's population is unevenly distributed, with densely populated areas mainly concentrated in coastal areas at mid- to low-latitudes.
Specifically, it is divided into four dense areas and four sparse areas.
Four dense areas: eastern and southern Asia, western Europe, and eastern North and South America. The main reasons are: superior natural conditions and early agricultural development.
Four sparse areas: extremely arid desert areas, rainforest areas with too hot and humid climate, high latitude areas with severe cold all year round, and high plateau and mountain areas. The main reason: harsh natural conditions.
world population problem
Problems caused by excessive growth: excessive population, resulting in reduced per capita resource occupancy, employment difficulties, heavy traffic pressure, crowded housing, insufficient education and medical resources, etc. Solutions: adopt birth control policies.
Problems caused by too slow growth (negative growth): aging of the population, resulting in labor shortages, heavy pension burdens, insufficient resources for national defense, etc. Solutions: policies to encourage childbirth, encouraging immigrants to move in, etc.
Three major races
Classification basis: human physical characteristics
Three major races: white race, yellow race and black race
The main distribution areas of the three major ethnic groups:
White race: Mainly distributed in Europe, North America, northern Africa (North Africa), western and southern Asia (West Asia) and Oceania.
Yellow race: Mainly distributed in eastern Asia, the American Indians and the Inuit along the Arctic Ocean belong to the yellow race.
Black people: Mainly distributed in central and southern Africa ("the hometown of black people"). Due to historical reasons, there are also a certain number of black people in the Americas.
language and religion
major world languages
The six working languages of the United Nations: English, Chinese, French, Russian, Arabic, Spanish
English: the most widely spoken language in the world
Chinese: the most spoken language in the world
The world's three major religions
Christianity
It is the most widely believed and widely spread religion in the world, mainly distributed in Europe, North America, South America and Oceania.
The classic is the Bible, and the representative building is the church.
Islam
It is the second largest religion in the world and its followers are called Muslims. Mainly distributed in western Asia, southeastern Yellow River, northern and eastern Africa.
The classic is the Quran, and the representative building is the mosque.
Buddhism
It is the third largest religion in the world, with the largest concentration in Asia, including Sri Lanka in East Asia, Southeast Asia and South Asia.
Founded in ancient India in the 6th century BC, its representative buildings are temples and pagodas.
settlement
Main forms: rural and urban
The difference between rural landscape and urban landscape: industries engaged in, buildings, roads, population density, etc.
Problems that arise during urban development: traffic congestion, housing shortage, increased pollution, noise disturbance, insufficient water supply, rising crime rate, etc.
Favorable conditions for settlement development: flat terrain, sufficient water sources, fertile soil, rich natural resources, convenient transportation, etc.
The connection between the traditional architectural style of residential buildings and the local natural environment and socio-economic development
Protection of world cultural heritage
Implement world population distribution map
Language is not equal to writing. Population migration causes the spread of language and the spread of culture.
Due to intermarriage among humans, a mixed race was formed
