Cultural geography is the study of cultural products and norms - their variation across spaces and places, as well as their relations. It focuses on describing and analyzing the ways language, religion, economy, government, and other cultural phenomena vary or remain constant from one place to another and on explaining how humans function spatially.

Collections Print and digital collections serve as extensions of our teaching and research facilities.And physical features are things that weren't put here by people. They're there because that's the way the land is. So the hills, the trees, things like that. So on our map, we're going to draw loads and loads of little pictures to show where things are.

Oh, Change Champs, you've done an amazing job. That's a fantastic map. There's one last thing we need to do. And that's to put X marks the spot to show exactly where we are in your awesome map. Okay.

Progress in Geography. 6: 89–95. doi: 10.1177/030913258200600104. S2CID 157288359. The study of the geographical factors in world politics and inter-state relations. The term is also used more generally to describe regional strategic relations, as in ‘the geopolitics of the South China Sea’. In the present day it covers much the same ground as International Relations, although with greater emphasis on geographical factors such as location, resources, and accessibility. Within this broad definition, there are many variants and the differences between them are significant. In part, these stem from the chequered history of the term ‘geopolitics’, which fell from favour across much of the Anglo-American world after the 1940s. Political geography is concerned with the study of both the spatially uneven outcomes of political processes and the ways in which political processes are themselves affected by spatial structures.

Physical features are natural: they would be here even if people weren’t. Things like rivers, mountains and seas! Human features are made by people, like buildings, roads and bridges. Matt: Right, let's go and start making our map. Okay. So for this mission, you're going to need to look at human and physical features in this place, all around us. So human features are things that people have built like that great big wall or the houses or roads, things like that. Mr Lewis: It's a bit confusing, isn't it? That's because the road follows the bends of the river in places. To make it straight the road builders would have had to build lots of bridges and tunnels, which cost a lot of money. Although they look similar on this map, the road and the river are examples of the two different types of geography: physical and human. Johnston, R.J. (1979). Geography and Geographers.
