This informative resource is a fascinating compilation of the
history, politics, and culture of every capital city from around
the world, making this the only singular reference on the subject
of its kind. Every country, even the world's youngest nations, has
a capital city-a centralized location which houses the seat of
government and acts as the hub of culture and history. But, what
role do capital cities play in the global arena? Which factors have
influenced the selection of a municipal center for each nation?
This interesting encyclopedia explores the topic in great depth,
providing an overview of each country's capital-its history and
early inhabitants, ascension to prominence, infrastructure within
the government, and influence on the world around them. The author
considers the culture and society of the area, discussing the
ethnic and religious groups among those who live there, the major
issues the residents face, and other interesting cultural facts.
Capital Cities around the World: An Encyclopedia of Geography,
History, and Culture features the capital cities of 200 countries
across the globe. Organized in alphabetical order by country, each
profile combines social studies, geography, anthropology, world
history, and political science to offer a fascinating survey of
each location.
