The World and Its People, Western Hemisphere, Europe, and Russia © 2005

The World and Its People: Western Hemisphere, Europe, and Russia is a middle school program co-authored by National Geographic. This program introduces students to an enriched view of the interrelationships of geography, history, economics, government, citizenship, and current events—in one compelling package. A strong geographic thread is interwoven with history, government, and current events to analyze different regions of the world and the issues they face.

Suitable for a world geography or world cultures class, this program is also available as a full survey, and Eastern Hemisphere.
