The 5 Themes of Geography are location, place, region, movement, and human-environment interaction. Location describes where a place is on Earth through absolute and relative terms. Place examines the physical and human characteristics that make one location distinct. Region looks at the common traits shared by areas, including formal, functional, and perceptive regions. Movement refers to the transportation of ideas, people, and items between places. Human-environment interaction analyzes how humans adapt to, depend on, and modify their natural surroundings.
