Analyzing the world with the five themes of geography helps people by showing them how the world and lots of different places, and people are similar. Some cities like Bangkok Thailand and Nairobi Kenya could seem completely different but do a lot of things the same way. For example trade, government, and education system.
I believe place can be the most difficult to understand because some features were made by people but look natural so you can’t tell whether it is natural or not. Which can confuse the human and physical characteristics.
