Geography is the study of the Earth, including its lands, features, people, and the relationships between them. Simply put, it is about understanding places and how people interact with their environments
. Geography has two main parts:
- Physical geography studies natural features like mountains, rivers, weather, and landscapes. It looks at how these things form and change over time.
- Human geography studies people, their communities, cultures, economies, and how they use and affect the land
Geographers use tools like maps to show information about places and environments. They also study how natural and human factors influence each other
. In essence, geography is "writing about the Earth" — exploring where things are and why they are that way
