Political and Social Geography

Political and social geography studies how human communities organize themselves across the landscape, focusing on political boundaries, governments, and sovereignty, as well as social relationships, cultures, and identity. It examines how borders are created and maintained, and how they influence relationships between nations, regions, and groups. Additionally, it explores how social factors such as ethnicity, language, religion, and economic status shape community interactions and spatial patterns. Together, these fields help us understand the connection between geography and societal structures, highlighting how physical spaces influence political decisions and social identities.
