Physical geography worldwide - Statistics & Facts
Geography is a field of science which studies lands, features, inhabitants, and phenomena of Earth. Often, it is divided into two categories including human geography – study of communities and cultures and their interaction with the environment – and physical geography – study of processes and patterns in the natural environment. Here, we will focus on the physical geography as an Earth science, more specifically the landforms and hydrological bodies that span across the globe. Often physical boundaries may separate the different regions of Earth, enforcing the borders set by humans.
