13

cultural boundary

16

relic boundary

17

ways we classify boundaries by origin

superimposed boundaries, consequent boundaries, subsequent boundaries, antecedent boundaries, relic boundaries

18

superimposed boundary

a boundary line placed by an outside power, that is placed over and ignoring an existing cultural patterns

19

antecedent boundary

a boundary line established before the area in question is well populated

<p>a boundary line established before the area in question is well populated</p>
20

subsequent boundary

a boundary line that is established after the area in question has been settled and that considers the cultural characteristics of the bounded area

21

consequent boundary

a type of subsequent boundary that is intentionally drawn to accommodate cultural differences, such as ethnicity, religion or language

<p>a type of subsequent boundary that is intentionally drawn to accommodate cultural differences, such as ethnicity, religion or language</p>
22

difference between subsequent boundaries and consequent boundaries

honestly this difference is super unclear and the two videos you will see describe them differently. My advice is to thing of subsequent as "they people were already there and subsequently the boundary developed" and consequent as "we needed to draw borders and we decided to divide people according to cultural similarities and differences"

23

frontiers

a geographic area where no state has direct power over the area. (there are few frontiers left today)
