Semiotics is the study of signs. It is an interdisciplinary field that examines what signs are, how they form sign systems, and how individuals use them to communicate meaning. Its main branches are syntactics, which addresses formal relations between signs; semantics, which addresses the relation between signs and their meanings; and pragmatics, which addresses the relation between signs and their users.
I wonder if memes are collections of signs with meanings in relation to each other and their users. I’m sure that’s not the case tho.

“Territoriality” implies defense of an area, and many researchers create maps that help graphically illustrate the range, or territory, of a given wolf pack.
However, the area defended is not as clearly defined as a map may indicate. Territory shifts can occur seasonally or year to year.
Also notable is that neighboring territories may overlap. However, while the same area may be used by several packs, use will not occur at the same time.

His favorite game to play outside was cowboys and Indians. Tales of the American West were very popular among boys in Austria and Germany. Books by James Fenimore Cooper and especially German writer Karl May were eagerly read and re-enacted. May, who had never been to the American West, invented a hero named Old Shatterhand, a white man who always won his battles with Native Americans, defeating his enemies through sheer will power and bravery. Young Hitler read and reread every one of May’s books about Old Shatterhand, totaling more than 70 novels. He continued to read them even as Führer. During the German attack on the Soviet Union he sometimes referred to the Russians as Redskins and ordered his officers to carry May’s books about fighting.
