GEOPOLITICS

Geopolitics is the study that analyzes geography, history and social science with reference to spatial politics and patterns at various scales (ranging from the level of the state to international). It examines the political, economic, and strategic significance of geography, where geography is defined in terms of the location, size, function, and relationships of places and resources.
