From longitudes and latitudes, to atlas and Atlas, the Greek God, this category literally covers the earth. Content about Geography spans from in-depth studies of people who studied and pioneered the science to the terms and definitions of the science itself. From the very beginnings of cartography, where man looked to the sun and stars to help navigate to modern global positioning satellites where man looks to the heavens again, the science of geography has continued to change and evolve. You’ll also learn about names and reasons for the Prime meridian, the Tropic of Cancer, and the Tropic of Capricorn.
