On this adventure, we will explore the twelve realms of the world through specific and contextualized examples. Rather than focusing primarily on the physiography, climate and population demographics of a region, this module serves as a method of transcending the conventional by focusing on the characteristic, yet underreported phenomena that makes up our understanding of the world. We will cover unique topics from the following regions of the world:

• North America
• Middle and South America
• Europe
• Russia and Central Asia
• North Africa and Southwest Asia
• Sub-Saharan Africa
• South Asia
• East Asia
• Southeast Asia
• Australia
• Pacific Islands and Oceania
• Polar regions: Arctic and Antarctica

Often, you'll find that the reported stories are interconnected in some aspect. This was purposefully done so that you could better envision the interconnectivity between various regions of the world.
