Study of Geography

Geography provides a natural back Ground for the study of history of a country and its people.Man reacts to his environment and tries to gain control over the forces of nature.His gradual release from dependence upon nature and a simultaneous increase in his power to harness it to his advantage are the bases of human progress.The rate of progress is determined by mans technological competence and his ideology which shapes his life.Technical competence and its application are like shaped by the natural resources of a country,its climate and its situation. Thus the discussion of geographical factors affecting human life such as physical features climate and natural resources is a fitting introduction to the study of the history of a country.
