The branch of geography that studies human societies, cultures, and populations in relation to their physical environments.
From Greek 'anthropos' (human) + 'geo' (earth) + 'graphy' (description, study of). This discipline emerged in the 19th century as geography expanded beyond pure physical description.
Anthropogeography explains why deserts have nomadic cultures, why river valleys support large cities, and why isolated islands develop unique languages—it's geography applied to human life.
