| Tiivistelmä: | Many cities are located on rivers or coasts. Such cities developed as transportation hubs or markets for interregional trade, since these locations provide better access to other regions. Local products are collected at such hubs, and interregional trade then takes place among these transportation hubs. As the volume of trade between hubs increases, more workers are needed in order to meet labor demand for shipping and handling commodities, resulting in population agglomeration at such hubs. |
