_____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Observation

This is another unpopular question.  The candidates who answered it did not understand the demands of the question in (a) part.  They failed to mention infertility of soil, harsh and unbearable climate, warfare, oppressive rule, outbreak of diseases as reasons for migration and so lost some marks.

In (b) part, the candidates also failed to mention the following points among others:

  1. struggle for ownership of farmland;
  2. expansion of territorial boundaries;
  3. spread of religion;
  4. wars, etc.
