The science of geography is likely the oldest of all sciences. Exploration and the discovery of new places, new cultures, and new ideas have always been basic components of geography.Thus, geography is often called the "mother of all sciences" as studying
other people and other places led to other scientific fields such as
biology, anthropology, geology, mathematics, astronomy, chemistry, among
others.
Geography is the science that we learn about the environment, the features and the inhabitants and the phenomena of the earth.To be considered, there are five themes of geography:
- Location
- Human-environment interactions
- Movement and Migration
- Region
Why do we need to study Geography?
Studying geography in class seems to be boring but to be certain, we were surely interested when we started learning about the things related with earth, e.g solar system.We can know about the minerals and resources which exit on our earth.
From studying geography,we can also know what's
happening around the world right now and can understand how and why the
world is changing globally and locally.Studying also provides knowledge
about the other plants and how to save.
From geography, we can know how and why the natural disasters happen in our world.So we could figure out how those disasters affect the world.Besides those facts, studying geography let us to know
about the different cultures,societies,political systems and
landscapes.It can also inform us about the environments across the world and about the human actions to the earth.
