The theme of place helps us consider the things that make a place unique and different
from other places. We can consider a place's physical characteristics. Physical
characteristics include elements of the natural environment, like landforms, bodies of
water, climate, vegetation and animal life. Landforms are natural shapes or features of the
landscape. Climate is the pattern of weather in a place over a long period of time.
In addition to physical characteristics, human characteristics also make a place unique.
These include things like the population density, languages people speak, the architecture
(what the buildings look like), the religions people practice, the government, the clothing
people wear, the food they eat.
