Human geography studies the inter-relationship between the physical environment and sociocultural environment created by human beings through mutual interaction with each other.
The physical environment provided humans with a variety of elements, including soil, natural vegetation, climate, wafer, and a wide variety of fauna and flora. Humans, a physical element, have created a variety of other materials that are used in daily life, including houses, rails, roads, forms, industries, villages, cities, and ports. Humans have significantly changed the physical environment over time, which has had a significant impact on lives.
