Geography, the word created by Eratosthenes, generally means to write about the Earth. Geography is divided amongst human and physical aspects. Human geography studies where and why human activities occur where they are. Physical geography studies where and why natural occurrences happen where they do. The book concentrates on two main topics- culture and economy. The first key issue in the first chapter is geography?s most important tool-mapping. A map is a two dimensional model of a part of the Earth or the whole Earth. During the first chapter the basic concepts of ?why? questions were introduced. Geographers study to find why each place on earth has their own unique ways.

Maps, a scale model of the real world, are an important tool in geography. Maps can be considered as a reference tool and a communication tool. Maps were first drawn to assist with navigation. Aristotle determined that the Earth was a sphere. He noticed that the Earth?s shadow is a circle during an eclipse. Eratosthenes was the first person to use the word geography. He created the first correctly prepared world map. Ptolemy, writer of an eight volume ?Guide to Geography?, improved map-making that could not be changed for more than a thousand years. Little progress occurred after Ptolemy until the seventh century, when Bernhardus Varenius created a map which stood as the standard for almost a century.
