Town is a transitory fast shifting between the village and the city. Therefore we can not determine it city or village in point of area, occupation, population and culture.
As regard to its origin and constructiou, there are three kinds of town: a town which makes up the outskirts around a city, a town which is independent from any other city and a town which forms a administrative district consisting of many villages. Therefore we can not discuss its geographical position and origin in the point of the same principle.
I made an general investigation, from the geographical point of view, on what kind of features and origins villages have, paragraphing as follows:
1. Towns transforming itself
2, The origines of towns
3. the density of the population
4, The populations classified according to occupation.
