Geography, concerned as it is with human-environment interaction, represents the spatial dimension of human activity while history represents the time dimension. Neither can be adequately understood in the absence of the other, so it only makes sense to study them together, especially at the pre-college level. Separating history and geography in school is arbitrary, anti-intellectual and ineffectual.
