It turns out that the people in Syria don't really interact with people from different races and they also categorize each other. For example, they put each other in different classes- First class, Middle class, and Lower Class. People in Syria are very stratified. They only spend time with the people they know and trust. Wealthy and educated families live a modern life-style and the less wealthy can't even own televisions or radios. Air conditioners, dishwashers, and microwaves are only for those who are very wealthy. The way people dress can even show what class they are in. It seems like a lot of competition about class goes throughout Syria.

The way people in Syria changed the environment to help better suit their needs they grow their own crops and they grow their own food. They also take care of their own animals for meat. Also, wheat crops are the largest crops, followed by cotton. Also, Syrians believe children are blessings from god and the ones with the most are considered lucky because they can be really helpful because they are extra hands in the field and they are given extra affection by their mothers. However, men and women are separated but not when it comes to family.

This unique location causes different parts of Syria to have a vast variety of climates, from a humid Mediterranean Sea climate to the freezing mountain and heated desert climates. This variety of climates allows a Syrian to go mountain climbing in a freezing area or vacation in a humid area with a relaxing tropical climate.

Syria has many physical characteristics. For example, Syria is mostly a flat desert plateau with many other surrounding physical features. These features include rising mountains, coastal plains, rivers and lakes, beaches, deserts, etc. Syria also has many human characteristics.

There are many unique patterns occurring with the movement of people and goods of Syria. For instance, recently, there have been many migrants moving out of Syria. This is because many peoples' houses are being bombed. This is the reason why many people are migrating out of Syria. Also, without its import and exporting, Syria would have one-third less of the profit it has now.

What Syria exports to other countries to sell, is the reason for one-third of it's profit. Syria is big on agriculture and exports many grown food and herbs to other countries. Syria also exports many of their industrial products. Syria will most likely get a huge supply of oil imported to their country. This is because Syria is running short on oil and the use for natural gas can be dangerous and wasteful.
