Geography is the study of the world, its people, and landscapes. It is both a science and a social science. As a science, geography systematically studies the world's physical features and laws. As a social science, it explores human relationships and how people affect their environments. The five core themes of geography are location, place, human-environment interaction, regions, and movement. Location refers to where something is located through coordinates or addresses, while place looks at the defining features that make an area unique.
