Science including physics, chemistry, astronomy, earth science, and biology seems to be indirectly connected. Personal studies including the human body, psychology, and biography can be connected. Anthropology including social foundations, demography, physical anthropology, human ecology, human geography, and particular groups will be connected. Culture including material components will also be connected. Conceptual culture including language, graphic arts, literature, mathematics, applied science, and philosophy will be useful. Behavioral components including customs, occupations, recreation, and entertainment will be important. Cultural events such as miscellaneous events, holidays, meetings, and disasters can be considered.	Links to other areas: Not yet developed.
This depends on families. Education including research, teaching, cultural institutions, educational organization, and particular schools can be connected. This depends heavily on studies of economic activity including production, distribution and exchange, and consumption. It is also intimately tied to industries. These include companies, but agriculture, extraction and manufacturing, building and construction, social and medical, transportation, communication, and commercial and financial services are all important. It is also connected to government including law, government structure, and government activity. Particular governments including local government, national government, and international government can be connected. Religion including religious belief, practice, organization, and particular religions has some connection to economic systems. Particular religions such as Abrahamic religion, Asiatic religion, secularism, and pagan religion can be compared. Sociology Social structure and change including social structure, social types, and social change will be valuable. Particular communities such as Tokyo, Seoul, Mexico City, and New York City will provide examples of these. Peoples of the world including African peoples will also provide examples. Particular nations such as Bangladesh, Russia, Nigeria, Japan, Mexico, and the Philippines will be useful in examing the economics of peoples. Western civilization including Brazil is significant. Anglic peoples including those of the United States are important. Asiatic peoples including those of Pakistan can be considered. South Asian peoples including those of India are important. Oriental peoples including those of China can be examined. Southeast Asian peoples such as those of Indonesia can be considered. American Indian peoples such as are found in the United States and Brazil are much less significant. History The history of economic systems is obscure, but they have evolved over time starting from prehistory. In antiquity, their development has continued through the 5th millennium BC, 4th millennium BC, 3rd millennium BC, 2nd millennium BC, and early firstMillennium BC. In classical and medieval times, including the early clasical, late classical, early medieval, and late medieval periods, they continued to evolve. In modern times, their study has extended substantially. In the 16th and 17th century, analysis was largely based on philosophy. In the 18th century, economic systems were studied in more detail. I do not yet have details for the early 18th century, early mid 18th century, mid 18th century, late mid 18th century, or late 18th century. In the 19th century including the early 19th century, the early mid 19th century, the mid 19th century, the late mid 19th century, and the late 19th century they expanded considerably. In the 20th century, including the early 20th century, early-mid 20th century, mid 20th century and late-mid 20th century, these have been studied in some detail, though not yet on this site. Events of the late 20th century including the early 1980s, late 1980s, early 1990s, and late 1990s can be considered. Recent events of the early 21st century including early 2000s down to 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005 are being examined. The late 2000s including 2006 can be examined. Events of 2007 including those of the first quarter, second quarter, third quarter, and fourth quarter can be considered. Events of the first quarter 2008 can also be considered. Their future is obscure.
