Geography is a subject that is often underrated, yet powerful. Geography allows us to understand the place where we live and the history behind its landscape. In day to day life, having a good grasp of geography allows us to develop our skills in navigation and avoid getting lost driving or in the wilderness. Knowing geography helps us get a better understanding of what's happening around the world and puts current events in perspective.
It helps us understand history too. A person can't understand World War II without understanding the roles of the continental Russian Winter or the English Channel. Geography shapes the course of world history. Want to better understand history and what shaped the world as we know it today? Study geography.
