MIGRATION The population of the place of destination increases. / The population of the place of origin decreases. The age and sex structure of the immigrant group changes the population structure in both the destination and origin areas. Emigrant groups often consist largely of young singles. Therefore, the place of origin loses young members of childbearing age, resulting in an aging population. The place of destination often has an increase in births, resulting in a reduction in the average age of the society. The migrating group may adopt many cultural practices of the place of destination. The migrating group may overwhelm/dominate the native group and impose its culture on the native area. The two cultures may mix to varying degrees. The population of all societies involved in the war decreases. Often there is a disproportionate decrease in the number of young males. The invading group may completely wipe out the conquered group or destroy much of its cultural heritage. WAR The invading group may impose its culture on the conquered group. Occasionally, the invading group is assimilated into the conquered society.

Societies may specialize since they can trade to obtain the things they do not produce. Bilingualism and multilingualism may increase to accommodate trade. New words may be added to native languages to accommodate the demands of trade. INDEPENDENT INVENTIONS Inventions may help a society respond to pressures as growing population or depletion of natural resources. Inventions may change aspects of a society s way of life and have a radiating impact throughout the culture. A culture may develop differently from surrounding ones.
