* What factors - such as latitude, elevation, and mountain barriers - affect the climate of asia?

Asia is the largest continent present in the globe. Factors which affect Asia climate are the latitude and mountain barrier. Latitude acts as a climatic control because the vertical rays of the sun, which are the most intense and heat producing, strike only on the tropics. North and south of the tropical zone are less intense insulated as , the energy received from the sun is less received per unit of the earth surface.  This causes temperatures in the tropics to be cooler and more seasonal as it approaches the poles from the tropic region. Mountain barriers also affect climate by forcing the moisture bearing winds to rise and release precipitation on the windward side of the mountains. The leeward side of mountain barriers usually has an arid climate.  As the descending air on the leeward side is being compressed and therefore, it is warmer.  This condition of the air to be warmer cause the air to be more receptive to absorbing moisture rather than releasing it . As precipitation , the likelihood of precipitation is increased when air is cooled, not when it is warmed. Hence Asia is a continent of various climates and culture.

The primarily goals of the zapatistas of mexico in 1994 were land reform and redistribution. it is also included in their demands to have a greater political and cultural autonomy for the indigenous people of chiapas and the rest of mexico.
