[Humanities]5 Themes of Geography
[Humanities]5 Themes of Geography
Geography has many different kind of meaning. “Geography” is the word that ancient Greek created from “ge” means Earth and “grapho” means for “to write” is also means a word call “Eratosthenes” (276-194B.C.).Basic meaning of geography is the memorization of place names, but there are still many meaning for geography. There are 5 kinds of geographies include landscapes, mountains, climates, rivers, and people among others. Geography is concerned with where and why things are located as they are. It concerned with the patters and the process that created them.
Geography often described as two parts, which make up a whole. So, geography described by part 1 Regional Geography, and part 2 Topical, or Systematic Geography. Regional Geography focuses on the areas of Earth space that have degree of homogeneity. Regions can be physical, human or combination of both. Topical, or Systematic Geography includes studies climate, landforms, economics, and culture among others. There are many people study geography they may call themselves biogeographers, political geographers…. They study their own subject.

[Humanities]Why is where important?
[Humanities]Why is where important? In other words, how does where one is one the planet and what type of geography-land-water form is nearby, affect our lives?
Where you are is very important for people because you need to know where you are and know who to go other place from this place to another place. Another reason is because maybe other people want know where you are and maybe your family members want to know where you are and maybe they want to connect you to know the place you are. Sometimes your friends or family members want to talk to you at some place then you can go the place your friend of family member told you.
The planets form by geography-land-water. The planet we live is Earth. Our planet Earth have 70 percent is form by water, 30 percent is form by land. Every place have different kind of weather, time and terrain…. etc. It is because those reasons affect our lives. Cold weather and hot weather can let people get cold or feel hot…etc. That’s why people will change because of the geography, land, and water.
