Location: Geographic location refers to a position on the Earth. Your absolute geographic location is defined by two coordinates, longitude and latitude. These two coordinates can be used to give specific locations independent of an outside reference point.
Place: Physical characteristics and Human characteristics.
Physical is a description of such things as mountains, rivers, beaches, topography, climate, and animal and plant life of a place.
Human is the human-designed cultural features of a place such as land use, architectural styles, forms of livelihood, religious practices, political systems, common foods, local folklore, means of transportation, and methods of communication.
Interaction: Humans shape the landscape through their interaction with the land. As an example of the human-environment interaction, people living in cold climates have often mined coal or drilled for natural gas in order to heat their homes.
Movement: Some examples of movement are ideas, fads, goods, resources, communication all travel distances, movement and migration across the planet, the flow of water in the Gulf Stream, and the expansion of cell phone reception around the planet. They can all affect the geography in many ways, for one.. the water can cause weathering of the landscape. Us people can pollute the atmosphere and the ground and cause harm to the environment as well (if this is too long take some examples out)
Region: Regions divide the world into manageable units for geographic study.
Formal regions are designated by official boundaries, such as cities, states, counties, and countries
Functional regions are defined by their connections. For example, the circulation area for a major city area is the functional region of that newspaper.
Vernacular regions include perceived regions, such as "The South," "The Midwest," or the "Middle East"; they have no formal boundaries but are understood in mental maps of the world.
