I would not ask about China, I've seen enough documentaries about their deserts and high plateaus. Some of them about the silk road, which was not an easy one because of that geography.
- soundwave106 10y agoFrom what I see, there's a pretty good correlation between the population density map (https://www.britannica.com/place/Canada/images-videos/Population-density-of-Canada/71476 https://www.britannica.com/place/Canada/images-videos/Popula...) and the portion of Canada at least sporadically covered by permafrost. (http://www.enr.gov.nt.ca/state-environment/13-permafrost http://www.enr.gov.nt.ca/state-environment/13-permafrost) In addition to the rather obvious climate this implies (eg, rather cold), from what I understand, building anything on permafrost is very challenging.
- soperj 10y ago"sporadically covered by permafrost" - I think you're confused as to the permanency of permafrost.
