Looking at the Royal geographical society in London. Mainly to access a quite place in London to work. Out of the home. And so I was researching background to RGS. I like geography but I am not a scholar in that area...I like to travel and want to look into the world for its travel. So I was Just wondering about the world of geography, for my own reasons (travel) and find MORE interestingly, how the worlds Geography Includes how it IS PEOPLED. People is my subject. The world is studied for its population geography, covering every angle including its cultural geography. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_geography ) " This geography studies the geography of culture . Theories of cultural hegemony or cultural assimilation via cultural imperialism Cultural areal differentiation, as a study of differences in way of life encompassing ideas, attitudes, languages, practices, institutions and structures of power and whole range of cultural practices in geographical areas......... Other topics include sense of place, colonialism, post-colonialism, internationalism, immigration, emigration and ecotourism." ....So lots of study going on then, of people under the microscope....But here's the thing, Cultural (historical) geography includes the concept of cultural hegemony... And Wiki tells us. "In Marxist philosophy, cultural hegemony is the dominance of a culturally diverse society by the ruling class who shape the culture of that society—the beliefs and explanations, perceptions, values, and mores—so that the worldview of the ruling class becomes the accepted cultural norm.[1] As the universal dominant ideology, the ruling-class worldview misrepresents the social, political, and economic status quo as natural and inevitable, and that it perpetuates social conditions that benefit every social class, rather than as artificial social constructs that benefit only the ruling class.[2][full citation needed][3] When the social control is carried out by another society, it is known as cultural imperialism.

Tartaria is shown the map below/ XXXXX Below that, maps show the ascending world in its increasingly populating spiral, and a question arises , that Is often answered when we think that "the ruling classes" become adept at studying the populations and their cultures, presumably to maintain margins of control...control over an ever @@@@increasing expansion of consciousness@@@@@ that just might become aware of itself. Using tactics of lable, herd and fence, divide and conquer, social engineering is very much the game here. Michaela.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_geography XXXX Map of world population density in 1994 XXXXXX Map of world population density in 2005 XXXXXXX Since its inception, population geography has taken at least three distinct but related forms, the most recent of which appears increasingly integrated with human geography in general. The earliest and most enduring form of population geography emerged in the 1950s, as part of spatial science. Pioneered by Glenn Trewartha, Wilbur Zelinsky, William A. V. Clark, and others in the United States, as well as Jacqueline Beaujeu-Garnier and Pierre George in France, it focused on the systematic study of the distribution of population as a whole and the spatial variation in population characteristics such as fertility and mortality.[1] Population geography defined itself as the systematic study of: the simple description of the location of population numbers and characteristic sxxxxxxx the explanation of the spatial configuration of these numbers and characteristics xxxxxxx the geographic analysis of population phenomena (the inter-relations among real differences in population with those in all or certain other elements within the geographic study area). Accordingly, it categorized populations as groups synonymous with political jurisdictions representing gender, religion, age, disability, generation, sexuality, and race, variables which go beyond the vital statistics of births, deaths, and marriages.[1] Given the rapidly growing global population as well as the baby boom in affluent countries such as the United States, these geographers studied the relation between demographic growth, displacement, and access to resources at an international scale.[1] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (AND) Cultural geography https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_geography Cultural geography is a subfield within human geography. Though the first traces of the study of different nations and cultures on Earth can be dated back to ancient geographers such as Ptolemy or Strabo, cultural geography as an academic study first emerged as an alternative to the environmental determinist theories of the early 20th century, which had believed that people and societies are controlled by the environment in which they develop.[1] Rather than studying predetermined regions based on environmental classifications, cultural geography became interested in cultural landscapes.[1] This was led by the "father of cultural geography" Carl O. Sauer of the University of California, Berkeley. As a result, cultural geography was long dominated by American writers. Geographers drawing on this tradition see cultures and societies as developing out of their local landscapes but also shaping those landscapes.[2] This interaction between the natural landscape and humans creates the cultural landscape. This understanding is a foundation of cultural geography but has been augmented over the past forty years with more nuanced and complex concepts of culture, drawn from a wide range of disciplines including anthropology, sociology, literary theory, and feminism. No single definition of culture dominates within cultural geography. Regardless of their particular interpretation of culture, however, geographers wholeheartedly reject theories that treat culture as if it took place "on the head of a pin".[3]
