Synthetical geography uses analysis and synthesis to present a complete picture of any geographic problem by analyzing relationships between phenomena such as climate, soils, rainfall, habitats, and ways of life. It focuses on localization of phenomena and uses maps to locate places and study locations. Man appropriates land for his benefit, developing and using it for activities like farming, fishing, herding, manufacturing. Geography studies land use and the relations between phenomena in a given space.

The Perspective and Association of Geography with Environment and Societypaperpublications3
Abstract: The study examines the relationship of the discipline of Geography with conceptual terms of Environment and society. Geography is seen as a spatial science, majorly concerned with spatial analysis, of how and why things differ from place to place and how observable spatial pattern evolved through time on the surface of the earth. The study adopts a survey of literature as its methodology. It is observable that every society has its individual physical and cultural attributes that distinguishing it from other societies; thus giving it unique character, potential and location. And it is found that in society cultural traits are more pronounced in changing the natural phenomena of the environment. The Environment is better understood when broken to its component: atmosphere, hydrosphere lithosphere and biosphere. Environment has all that is needed to sustain the society and all that is required for life sustenance. It provides the setting with which human action occurs, its shapes but not dictate, how people live in the society as well as their resource base. However, how resources are perceived and utilized is culturally conditioned in society. And virtually every human activity leaves its imprint on the environment. Environment and society form the laboratory for geographic operation. And its spheres form the space which is the major concern in geography and the concept of society introduces the important factor of culture which greatly has direct impact on the environment. The socio-cultural content of the society is influenced by the environment where it locates and the society modifies the content of the environment. There are interconnection between the environment and society which purposely produces spatial patterns with their hidden mechanism of spatial process, accessibility and connectively in addition to idea of location and distance. Advance level of interaction has produced globalization which has accelerated greater spatial diffusion of idea and material resources in the world. The major role of geography is to ensure harmonious spatial organization and inter relationship between and among societies on one hand and between society and its environment on the other. Thus, this is being pursued in geography through its traditions: Earth science, cultural-environment, the location (space), the areal analysis and various paradigms and spatial techniques. It is therefore recommended that for speedy development in developing nations particularly at combating the myriad of environmental challenges and appropriate exploitation and utilization of environmental resources, the spatial tool should be adopted as contained in the discipline of Geography.

What is Human Geography?
When you think of the word geography, you often think of a map or globe. Geography is much more than just
maps. Geography has two main branches. The first is physical geography, which focuses on environmental
dynamics. The second is human geography. Greiner (2018) defines human geography as “a branch of
geography centered on the study of people, places, spatial variation in human activities, and the relationship
between people and the environment” (p. 2). For this class, we will focus on human geography.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

12. Synthetical Geography uses analysis and
synthesis. Here, the first and the most important
task of geographer is to show all aspects, all
facets of a subject or problem under study. It
presents a complete picture of any
geographic problem, be it physical, social,
political, or economic and analyzes the
relations between phenomena such as
climate, soils, rainfalls, habitats, and ways of
life. Instead of treating them in isolation, it puts
together facts to form a whole picture which
well establish the interdependence and
interaction of phenomena and geographic
facts.
13. All phenomena on the Earth’s surface
occupy places or locations. Geography’s
concern is to focus its attention on
localization or placement of phenomena.
To carry this out , maps are needed. Map
study is a vital part of geography to locate
places and study the location of
phenomena. In short, the relations between
among the phenomena presents in a given
space are discribed and studied.
14. Man uses land for his benefit and welfare. He
has appropriated this piece of land,
parceled it out, developed it, cleared the
ground , dug canals, and selected sites for
farms, factories, village, towns, and cities.
He has used this piece of land for farming,
fishing, herding, manufacturing, and for his
many other activities. Concentration on the
study of land use in the focus of this
scientific study.
16. Concept 1: Location
“ Where did it happen?”
Location can be either
absolute (45° 34’ 44” N) or
relative (approximately 40 km
west of Halifax)
Location provides the starting
point for many types of
geographic study.
17. Geographers use this as a method of grouping
information into units of manageable size
A region can be defined as an area of land that
has consistent or easily recognizable features
The scale or size of a region can vary greatly
Region is not only based on physical features.
Some regions are defined by cultural traits like
religion language ,income and political boundaries
18. Most of the events that geographers
study can be found in more than one
location or region in the world, this is
what is referred to as spatial distribution.
Spatial pattern is when geographers can
find a pattern of the same event in
places that are far apart.
19. The idea that an event in one location or
region can lead to a change in another
location or region some distance away.
Global interaction can have positive
and negative impacts.
20. Some spatial interactions are the result
either of the impact the environment has
on humans or the impact humans have
on the environment.
In contrast to other spatial interactions,
this type has impacts that are local; this
means they are not usually noticed
thousands of kilometers away.
21. When studying geography, we must take
into consideration the idea of culture, or
the customs and world view of a
particular people.
Different cultures have different views on
environment, the use of natural
resources, and the best way of living in
human communities.
Culture differences exist even among
people living in the same region.
22. Geography is the study of Earth as the
home of present –day human beings; it is a
scientific description of the surface features
of Earth, especially as these features affects
human activities. Geography is concerned
with the environment as it provides a home
for humankind and the way that humans
utilize that environmental home. This
definition conforms to the concepts and
ideas that form the modern field of
geography.
23. Explain each of the three main types of
definition and concepts of geography?
Which of the definition is the best for
you? Why?
