All the main centres within this region are connected by paved roads.

St. Helena has more than 100 kilometres of surfaced roads.

Across an entire city, there s much more tarmac than there is grass.

True, there are beautifully paved roads all around, but they go nowhere.

According to the Economist Intelligence Unit, the British Virgin Islands have 210 kilometres of surfaced roads.

Much of the transportation is either by the Niger River, or by paved roads linking Bamako to other major urban areas.

Researchers believe that this is because only 17 of rural communities in the country live within one mile of a paved road.

Venezuela has a road network of nearly in length, placing the country around 45th in the world around a third of roads are paved.

This paved road is long with one lane in each direction, except near larger towns and cities and in the Hvalfjörður Tunnel (also the site of a toll) where it has more lanes.

Often in Africa, the few paved roads that do exist are littered with potholes and lead to unpaved ones that are nearly impossible to navigate without a proper vehicle.

So the air above the city heats up. This effect, called an urban heat island, was discovered in London in the early 1800 s.

The extreme poor in Latin America s rural communities live five kilometers or more on average from the nearest paved road almost twice as far as non poor rural households, resulting in difficult and very costly access to markets and needed services.

The major roads connecting the major urban centres, in particular Route 13, have been significantly upgraded in recent years, but villages far from major roads can be reached only through unpaved roads that may not be accessible year round.

An Earth analog (also referred to as a Twin Earth, Earth Twin, Second Earth, Alien Earth, Earth 2 or Earth like planet) is another planet (or world) with environmental conditions similar to those found on the planet Earth.

Deploying and sustaining the mission would be a considerable challenge in a country the size of Western Europe and an area of responsibility measuring approximately 1,250 by 1,000 kilometres and having poor communications, few hardened roads or runways and an inoperable railway system.

When equated with the Earth or the natural world, such goddesses are sometimes referred to as Mother Earth or as the Earth Mother.

In light of this scenario, the 1997 Land Law creates the principles of land co ownership in a couple, during the passing of land ownership titles.

For example, a person standing motionless on the ground exerts a contact force on it (equal to the person's weight) and at the same time an equal and opposite ground reaction force is exerted by the ground on the person.

In the specific case of land for the family sector, the law recognizes that a family aggregate as right to land in as far as the use of land is concerned, and that land can be registered only in the name of the head of the household.
