(Originais Teachy 2024) - Question Easy of Geography

Consider a map of your region that shows the territorial boundaries between different municipalities. These imaginary lines not only delimit administrative areas but also influence social and economic dynamics. For example, a municipality may prioritize investments in infrastructure in a region near its border with another municipality in order to attract more residents and, consequently, more financial resources. Based on this context: (1) Explain, using geographical concepts, how municipal borders can affect the development of an area and interactions between communities. (2) Imagine that a new municipality is being planned and discuss, based on your geographical knowledge, which geographical and social factors should be considered in delineating the borders of this new municipality.
