Chapter. Continents and countries

Lesson on the topic: “Eurasia. The main features of the nature of Eurasia. Mainland population"

Like a Mediterranean crab or a sea star,

The last continent was thrown away by water.

Close to broad Asia, to America,

The ocean is weakening, washing Europe.

Its living shores are cut up,

And the peninsulas are aerial sculptures;

Vizcaya, Genoa lazy arc...

O. E. Mandelstam

Item: Geography. Continents and oceans.

Class: 7

Lesson topic: Population, political map of Eurasia §23.

The purpose of the lesson: - provide students with information about the population of Eurasia, its size and distribution, national and linguistic composition;

Teach methods of working with various maps of Eurasia;

Contribute to the formation cognitive interest to the subject being studied.

Means of education: political map of Eurasia.

Lesson methods: explanatory and illustrative.

Lesson type: combined.

During the classes:

I . Organizational moment(greet the class, note those absent).

II . Updating knowledge. The survey is carried out in the form of tests on the topic “Natural areas” (application).

III. Motivation for educational and cognitive activities, psychological mood.

IV. Explanation of new material:

1. There are 91 independent states in Eurasia, 44 in Europe and 47 in Asia.

Language and National composition The population of Eurasia is very complex. More than 4 billion people live on the mainland, which is ¾ of the world's population. Intensive population growth is observed in southeast Asia. The population of two countries in this region - China and India - exceeds 2 billion people. Therefore, densely populated areas are found in Southeast Asia. The average population density of this region is 1000-1500 people per 1 km 2. In the European part, especially on the Atlantic coast, population density is also high. The northern regions of the mainland are characterized by harsh natural conditions, as well as the highlands are sparsely populated.

Representatives of all races of the globe live in Eurasia. Their national and linguistic composition is also diverse. The most common population is Caucasian. Peoples of the Asian race live in the Asian part. Representatives of the equatorial race live on the island of Sri Lanka and in southern India.

Modern world religions (Buddhism, Christianity, Islam) arose and further spread on the territory of Eurasia.

The political map of the continent, before acquiring its modern form, long time was subject to constant changes. Currently, there are over 90 independent states in Eurasia. The largest of them are Russia, China, India, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia.

The countries of Eurasia according to their government structure are divided into republican and monarchical. In republics, the legislative body is the parliament, the executive is the government. The leadership of the state is carried out by the president.

The monarchical form of government is widespread mainly in Europe and Arab countries. Monarchies are divided into absolute, theocratic and constitutional. Power is inherited.

Thus, Eurasia became the cradle ancient civilization and culture in the history of human development, and will continue to remain the center of human development and prosperity.

2. Physical exercise.

Working with the map “Peoples and population density of the world.”

The population of Eurasia is divided according to language into families and groups.

Exercise 1. What peoples, their families and groups live on the territory of Eurasia? Name and show on the map.

Task 2. Show on the map the most populated parts of the continent. Which areas are sparsely populated? Why?

4. Working with the “Political Map of the World” map.

Exercise 1. By what criteria can the countries of Eurasia be grouped? Give examples of countries in each group.

Task 2. Name and show the countries that make up Northern Europe.

"This is interesting!"

Denmark

Many capitals of the world have their own symbol: London has the Tower, Rome has the Colosseum, Moscow has the Kremlin. And in Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, the visiting card is a bronze figurine of the Little Mermaid with a sprig of seaweed in her hand; she looks into the sea with sad eyes... Denmark is the owner of the oldest national flag, which was adopted in 1219.

Finland.

In Finland, the second Sunday of November is the annual holiday of fathers, on which national flags are flown and paternal insignia are awarded.

Iceland

The capital of the ice country, Reykjavik, is heated with natural hot water and is therefore free of smoke and soot. The heat from underground sources also goes into greenhouses where bananas and tomatoes, melons and grapes grow. It is considered the cleanest city in the world.

Norway

Numerous competitions, competitions, and youth festivals are preferred all over the world. But in Norway there is an international festival of grandmothers. Ladies who have reached the age of sixty compete with each other in motorcycle riding, parachute jumping, and scuba diving in the cold North Sea. The list of types of competitions becomes more diverse from year to year.

2. What ethnic and linguistic groups are the population of Eurasia divided into?

3. What world religions are common in Eurasia?

4. How many states are there in Eurasia?

5. What forms of government exist?

VI. Summarizing. Homework. §23, mark the countries of Eurasia on the outline map.

Eurasia is the largest continent on the globe. It occupies 1/3 of the entire landmass of the planet. The enormous size and complex structure of the earth's crust create uniquely diverse natural conditions.

Geographical records of the mainland

In Eurasia there is the highest mountain on Earth - Chomolungma (Everest), the largest mountain system in area - Tibet, the largest peninsula - the Arabian, the largest geographical area - Siberia, the lowest point of land - the Dead Sea depression.

Eurasia is the highest continent on Earth, its average height is about 830 meters. Elevation fluctuations are particularly large in Eurasia. The difference between the Dead Sea depression and the highest peaks of the Himalayas exceeds 9 kilometers.

The relief of Eurasia is extremely diverse; it contains some of the largest plains and mountain systems in the world: the East European Plain, the West Siberian Plain, and the Tibetan Plateau.

Eurasia has the most high mountains on Earth - the Himalayas, with the highest peak in the world - Mount Chomolungma.

Rice. 4. Chomolungma

The Eurasian mountain systems of the Himalayas, Tibet, Hindu Kush, Pamir, Tien Shan, etc. form the largest mountain region on Earth. This part of Eurasia is characterized by great activity of the earth's crust.

Rice. 5. Relief of Eurasia ()

How can we explain the diversity of the relief of Eurasia? This is the result of the mutual action of internal and external relief-forming processes.

The territory of Eurasia, like a mosaic, is made up of platform blocks connected by folded belts of different ages. The most ancient are the East European, Siberian, Sino-Korean and South China platforms.

Plains and mountains, created by internal forces, constantly change their relief under the influence of external forces.

Landforms created by rivers are ubiquitous on the mainland: mountain slopes are dissected by gorges and canyons, plateau surfaces are divided by terraces.

The largest plains of Eurasia - the Great Chinese, Indo-Gangetic, Mesopotamian, and West Siberian - are composed of river sediments - alluvium.

Rice. 6. Mesopotamian lowland

In the southeast and southwest of Eurasia - the Indochina Peninsula, in the Mediterranean, and in the Caucasus, karst forms are widespread. The limestones that make up the surface are dissolved by water seeping into the rock mass. And bottomless abysses appear on the surface, and deep underground - caves, blocked by palisades of stalagmites and stalactites.

Homework
