Hey guys, welcome to another Hip Hughes lecture, global style world history. In the next 10-15 minutes we're going to talk about some concepts related to human geography, how, you know, terms work in geography, and how geography has affected the development of world history. This is, you know, probably, I'm going to keep it short and sweet because I don't want to kind of get lost in details here, but I definitely think that I've seen this geography essay on the exam almost more than any other essay, so if you can't write about two geographical features that influence the development of a people or a society, you are dead. Don't show up, play sick. So geography is pretty important. So I thought a lot about this, how to do this. We could do it by region, we could do it by event.
