The Amish population has basically been isolating themselves from the influences of the macro culture for several years. The Amish population is at about 192,000, with seventy percent of that total in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Indiana. Being isolated, the Amish have managed to stay very traditional, and have steered away from advancing with technology. The Amish people do not have phones and have no electricity. They, also, view farming as a way of life, using modern farm equipment drawn by horses or mules and not permitting tractors in their fields.
Slouching Towards Bethlehem- Joan Didion “This is California where it is possible to live and die without ever eating an artichoke, without ever meeting a Catholic or a Jew... Where the divorce rate is double the national average and where one person in every thirty-eight lives in a trailer.” (page 4) The author is referencing a time period in America where there is little cultural diversity, and individual societies are ignorant to the idea of assimilating with neighboring regions. San Bernardino Valley, the region which the author is referencing, created a very defined way of life for it’s people which revolved around isolationism. “I tell you this neither in a spirit of self-revelation nor as an exercise in total recall, but simply to demonstrate that when John Wayne rode through my childhood, and perhaps, through yours, he

Some social characteristics are that the village he was living in was very small and often the word of the elder was what mattered most. It was very far from any major colonies, Equiano says “for I have never heard of white men or Europeans”, meaning they are most likely far, he also states that the village isn’t anywhere close to the sea either. The punishments were often slavery, as well in some cases death. Their culture is very open and joyful, “We are a nation of dancers, musicians and poets” he states, he notes that, dancing is their form of celebrating great victories, or achievements. They dress very similar, men and women and are a poor and humble population, they also emphasize convenience and utility over appearance.

One of the tribes they studied was the Pirahã. They only had words for one and two, and for few and many. The lack of a complex number vocabulary and the absence of numeral symbols made the task of placing the same number of objects in order on the table in a test difficult for the Piraha indians. Researchers found that the accuracy dropped after three objects. Another tribe they studied was the Mundurukú.

The only reason why the USA is able to sustain their use is because they have reliable water sources and manage the supplies well. Ghana has the least use of water. Although Ghana lies on the tropics and have rainfall seasons giving them absolutely no physical water stress, they have financial insecurity so are unable to extract and use the water supply. It is also an LEDC so there is a lack of hygiene which means that there are risks of water Bourne diseases making it dangerous for consumption thus the reason why domestic use is low ( less than 100 cubic meters pp). Ghana may also lack the infrastructure i.e pipelines for transporting water making it hard for investments needed to become industrialised therefore the reason why it's low ( less than 100 cubic meters pp) Egypt although being part of the Sahel region uses a significant amount of water.
