Interactions and Movements in Period 3: 600-1450 CE
The period from circa 600 to circa 1450 CE was marked by significant regional and transregional interactions, including the expansion of communication networks, continuity and innovation of state forms, and increased economic productivity. The movement of peoples led to environmental and linguistic effects, such as the adaptation of transportation methods like longships, camels, and horses. Migration, like that of the Bantu-speaking peoples and Polynesian groups, impacted the spread of iron technologies, agricultural techniques, and languages. The geography of Africa with its diverse climates, vegetation, and cultures also played a key role during this period.

Essential Questions. What continuity and innovations of state forms and their interactions occurred during this period of time.
II. The movement of peoples caused environment and linguistic effects. A. The expansion and intensification of long-distance trade routes often depended on environmental knowledge and technological adaptation to it. i.

The Maritime migration of the Polynesian people who cultivated transplanted foods and domesticated animals as they moved to new Islands.
II. The movement of peoples caused environment and linguistic effects. C.

The spread of Turkic and Arabic Languages.

Africas Geography Africa s Geography A. large size a. three times the size of the United States. b. locations led to a wide variety of climates & vegetation. c. distinct cultures and ways of life developed. B. Climate zones a. Rain forest: only around the equator. b. savanna. (grassy plain), the most populated. c. steppe zone. d. two deserts: i. Sahara to the north. ii.
