Welcome to c/Geography @ Mander.xyz!

Geography is just physics slowed down, with a couple of trees stuck in it. - Terry Pratchett

Notice Board

  • 2023-06-13: We are looking for mods. Send a dm to @fossilesque@mander.xyz if interested! This is a work in progress, please don’t mind the mess.

Geography is the study of places and the relationships between people and their environments. Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth’s surface and the human societies spread across it. They also examine how human culture interacts with the natural environment and the way that locations and places can have an impact on people. Geography seeks to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop and change over time. Read more…

Rules

  1. Don’t throw mud. Be kind and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
