A city is a human settlement with transport, sanitation, and housing systems in place.
Villages or towns are also human settlements, but they do not have the kind of infrastructure or population that cities have. Today's cities are more populated and modern than our ancestors could have ever imagined.
Students and researchers study important information to understand the history behind the people who lived there centuries ago. All this is possible using important landmarks and the geography of the region. Any country and its cities are made because of its people.
One of the most interesting city facts about New York, U.S.A. is that it is very populous and has people from many diverse cultures. It is located south of Rome, Italy on the map. Here are some very interesting city facts about cities around the world.
We have all grown up reading stories about monsters and giants, and some of them are shrouded in mystery as urban legends with no proof of existence.
Chupacabra is another name on the list of famous monsters like the Loch Ness monster and the Himalayan Bigfoot or Yeti. This mysterious vampire beast became an urban legend, especially after Benjamin Radford published a detailed report about it in 2012.
The mystery was solved quite easily as the report suggested that the animal was a wild dog. But people were not satisfied with such a simple solution for the loss of so much animal life. Some wondered what happened to the original chupacabra seen in the '90s?
Why are people not seeing the alien creature after the first few years of sightings? Where had the real animal disappeared to? These are some of the questions that are still bothering people, after so many years.
The first report of an unusual appearance came in 1995 when people in Puerto Rico blamed the chupacabra for attacks on their domestic animals and loss of animal life.
There were rumors of carcasses of domestic animals like goats and sheep lying dead, uneaten but drained of blood.
People also gave accounts of seeing a creature that resembled a mix of many other animals like a reptile but standing like a kangaroo, with large, glowing red eyes, and standing on two legs. No one could verify these claims or get any pictures.
Eight sheep were reportedly killed in the first attack by a Chupacabra, each with three similar puncture wounds in the chest, and all the blood had been drained.
The New England Patriots are an American football team based in the Greater Boston area.
The team, founded in 1959 as the Boston Patriots, was a charter member of the American Football League before joining the NFL in 1970. They played home games at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
Since 2002, this privately funded stadium has had all the administrative offices of the team and the Kraft Group. It is also a base for the Kraft-owned, major league soccer team, the New England Revolution.
The Patriots are part of two major teams in the NFL, which represent multiple states. The Patriots hold numerous records in NFL, including one for most Super Bowl victories at six wins, tied with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and losses at 5, tied with the Denver Broncos.
The team has dominated the NFL since 2001 under head coach, Bill Belichick, and quarterback Tom Brady.
The Patriots' most bitter rivalries are the New York Giants and the New York Jets. The Patriots have remained members of the AFC East division throughout their existence.
Initially, it was AFL East in 1960, and then after the merger of AFL and NFL in 1970, it became AFC East. John Hannah (one of the best offensive linemen to ever play in NFL history), Mike Haynes, and Steve Grogan led the Patriots to successes in the '70s and '80s.
In 1986, they advanced to their first Super Bowl but lost. It took another 11 years before the Patriots could return to the Super Bowl.
New England is a fabulous place in the U.S. packed with rich culture and history that dates back to colonial times.
New England is the pioneer state where the first European settlers established their colonies around 400 years ago. This region is known for its charming colonial towns, grand mansions, and historical sites that marked the American Revolutionary War.
New England comprises six incredible and diverse states: Connecticut, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Vermont, Maine, and Rhode Island. Each state is peppered with its history and charm, making it unique from the rest of the colonies.
Acknowledged as one of the stunning cities in the country, New England takes pride in its scenic spots and sights that consist of mountain ranges, rural areas, and breathtaking countryside filled with numerous hills.
The chemical properties of things around us make them useful or dangerous.
From hair dye to toilet cleaners and everyday cosmetics, we are fortunate to use these because of their chemical properties. But then what exactly does the term chemical property mean?
The chemical properties of an element make changes in the substance and convert it into a new chemical with a new formula. These properties can be seen only by changing the internal structure of the substance.
The chemical properties change with the chemical reaction and may change its appearance and subsequent reactions. This is one of the methods to identify a new unknown substance.
The chemical properties of a substance also decide the chemical changes or how it will react with other substances. These properties help scientists classify the substances into elements and compounds. They can purify and extract various substances for human consumption.
The chemical properties are evident only with chemical changes in the substance's chemical formula. We can see or touch the physical properties such as mass, but chemical properties are internal at the cellular level and are dependent on the number of electrons and protons in the cells.
Some examples of chemical properties are chemical stability, oxidation, flammability, reactivity, combustion, and toxicity.
