Answer 3

To me, both. History is like your memory: "What did I do yesterday, last week, last month, last year?" Geography is like "Where did I go yesterday? [perhaps the mall] Where did I go for summer vacation last year?"
On the big scale, if one really knows history (most people know only a small scale history for one time period and place), one has a chance of seeing, perhaps, where mankind is headed. When you read about some of the stone structures ancients build, you really have to wonder, such as a temple in India with ONE large "stone" for the roof of a temple, weighing more than 1,000 tons. How was it placed? Or the Incas...how did they build so many stone structures WITHOUT mortar. They fit the stones together so closely that a piece of paper would not fit into the "cracks". There were early peoples in Africa, the Americas, Korea...all over that built stone observatories to track the solar and lunar eclipses, the movements of the stars, the movement of Mars and Venus. History is so varied and interesting. A person could spend a life time just studying the history of the Saxons, for instance.
Geography is where do we get our natural resources to build this magnificent modern society, what peoples live where NOW and how they interrelate. It is about mountains and streams, petrified forests, the Grand Canyon, the Mojave Desert, the seas and oceans, the polar caps and the effect of the sun upon the earth.
Both are so complicated, so grand as to defy human imagination. One can only study a small part of one subject...or do like most of us, and just browse through them.

Answer 4

History is generally a much broader and deeper subject than geography because every event and every fact or fiction is part of a history. History is not just about stories of a famous person or the rise and fall of a nation, but about all the people, places and ideas over the course of the human existence.

Geography is often intertwined with history because of the changes in history, nature and other events. Geography in general may be more quantitative than history because it may involve more statistics and mathematics. Studies of population, socio-economic and geo-political topcs are all related to geography.

Personally I would choose history because it is a broader subject, but if you enjoy quantative studies or have a particular in demographics or other special topics within the geography realm, then the latter may be more interesting to you.

Answer 5

It's like the old song Love & Marriage: You can't have one without the other.

History can be seen as a battle for geography. That makes both kind of interesting. Watch people move around the globe...from Africa to Asia and Europe, Australia, the Americas, back and forth. The Romans across Europe, then the Huns, the Mongols...Wow. People are always moving around and killing each other (that's the history part). So even though they are taught separately, it's more fun when you think of them as two parts of the same thing--of what people do and why they do it. Resources, land, weather, all of that makes history.

Answer 6

History tells us about the Geography of a region but Geography never tells the History of area in written form.
History told by evidences of Geography is more authentic.
Both are supplementary subject.

If you like gossip, you like to know every body's business, you will love history.

If you are not in to people / events but rather like to hang out enjoying your surroundings, geography will be a piece of cake for you.
