Legacy: Something that has been passed on by those who lived before us. Has lasting impacts (positive or negative according to our worldview)
Ex: buildings and monuments, political structure, cultural traditions and celebrations, oral histories, tangible artifacts
Ethnocentrism: A way of thinking that centers on your own race and culture.
Ethnocentric people believe their worldview is the only valid one and judge people according to their traditions, cultures and beliefs

Wars must be monitored by the teacher (Best 2 out of 3)
Loser must erase your territory and cannot replace it

11. Winner Each nation must reveal their goal
The winner is determined by who met their goal
Now compare your map of Africa to the map of Africa in territorial divisions
