Geography
Geography is the study of areas and the relationship between the individual and their environments. Geographers discover both the physical properties of Earth’s outside and the human societies spread across it. This paper will explain how culture affects geography and how geography affects culture.
How Can Culture Affect Geography
Overtime time, those cultures put forth their influence on the landscape around them. For instance, the ritual services (e.g., cutting down trees for a place of worship) that were being practiced in the mountain were interfering with the climate (Grieg, 2014). Additionally, in the long ancient, those who were hunters and gatherers used analog of farm to exposing the land to erosion, which led to the topography of the soil be taken away. This interferes with the geography making the geographers not understand how a particular land formation had occurred—some believe in the traditional cultural practices that interfere with the environment and affecting geography.
How Geography Affect Culture
The specialist points to geography’s effect on certain physical features’ culture, such as climate and natural vegetation on the landform. For instance, if a person lives in the mountains, they are likely to develop a particular culture that adjusts to life at a high altitude. Furthermore, climate shapes what type of agriculture is possible in a given place, how people dress and what house they build-depend on climate making cultural practices differ in every given community (Anderson, 2020). Additionally, those staying at the mountain can quickly adapt to the different types of natural vegetation that have grown without human aid, making their lives quite different from those staying in a dry land.
