An appeal to nature is the argument that something is good because it is natural, or bad because it is artificial or synthetic. It feels persuasive because nature is often healthy, but the logic doesn't hold: arsenic, earthquakes and poison ivy are all natural, and penicillin and vaccines are synthetic or human-made. Whether something is natural says nothing about whether it is safe, effective or moral. The fallacy is mostly rhetorical, since the hidden premise, that what is natural is good, has no factual meaning on its own.

Angkor, near Siem Reap in northern Cambodia, was the capital of the Khmer Empire, which ruled much of mainland Southeast Asia between roughly the 9th and 15th centuries. At its height the city spread across about 3,000 square kilometres, making it the largest pre-industrial city on Earth by area. Its growth depended on water: huge reservoirs called barays, along with canals and embankments, stored monsoon rain and carried it to rice fields. That system let farmers harvest more than once a year and fed a very large population through the dry season. The temple complex of Angkor Wat, built in the early 12th century, is the best-known monument and still stands at the heart of the park.
