THE SCIENCE OF GEOGRAPHY.
Geography, which comes from the Greek words geo, meaning “earth”, and graphein, meaning “description”, is literally a study of the planet Earth. As trained scientists, geographers describe and analyze the physical characteristics of our planet and the ways in which people interact with these physical characteristics and with each other.

Throughout history people who went even short distances from where they lived became keenly aware of differences that distinguish one place from another and one group of people from another. Many of these travelers formed mental images of the places that they had visited and told others what they had seen. They sometimes scratched crude maps on rocks or on pieces of cloth or leather to improve the accuracy of their descriptions.

Geography, the study of the relationship between people and their physical surroundings, or environments, grew directly out of these attempts by early explorers to describe what they had seen on their travels. Today those who study geography describe and analyze the earth To explain what is where, why it is there, and what significance it has.
