Nomadic peoples looked for fertile, well watered land to settle on.
i dont now. look it up some where else i was looking for it first.
While Mesopotamia's soil was fertile, the region's semiarid climate didn't have much rainfall, with less than ten inches annually. This initially made farming difficult. Two major rivers in the region -- the Tigris and Euphrates -- provided a source of water that enabled wide-scale farming.
Geography affected where people settled in the southern colonies because most were looking for a good water source and fertile land to farm. These were located along the coastal plains. The southern climate was another factor. Tobacco cannot be grown in cooler climates such as New Jersey. For the most part settlers initially populated the coasts of the Southern colonies. This placed them apart from Native Americans.
Geography helped to shape the kingdoms established by the Germanic peoples who invaded the western part of the Roman Empire. The Vandals established their kingdom in the former Roman province of Africa (western Libya, Algeria, and northern Morocco) separately from Europe. The Visigoths established their kingdom in the Hibernian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal), which was separate from the rest of Europe by its location and the Pyrenees Mountains. The Franks took over the whole of France, defeating the Visigoths who had settled in the southwest, the Burgundians who had settled in the east and the Alemanni who had settled in the Northwest. The Franks were originally from southern Holland and the mid-Rhine area of Germany. This helped them to take over southern Germany, Switzerland and Austria, making the Frankish kingdom the largest in Europe. In Britain the Angles and Saxons established kingdoms there, helped by the fact that Britain is an island. Thus, geography contributed to shaping the new political map of Europe and through this, the lives of most Europeans who lived in separate kingdoms.
Because history is the study of the past and geography is the study of earth's physical and cultural features. So geography is related to history because the history tells what happened in the past and geography tells where it happened and who was there.The geographic location of a civilization can clearly effect its history of accomplishments or non-accomplishments.

The geography of Greece influenced where people settled and what they did. Greece's geographic features influenced where people lived because of the high and many mountains made it hard to travel.
during the ancient times river was the only source of water for the people. so they settled near around the river only. the civilizations that flourished in the river valleys are called river valley civilization.
The country is generally poor agriculturally, and settlement was confined to fertile river valleys and coastal plains.
Because the Soil was rich where they settled and they can grow plants and food faster and better where the rich soil was
it influenced it by they could catch a lot of animals and have a great meal.

All civilizations started out as nomads. These nomads settled near sources of fresh water, so they could grow crops and have a water supply for there livestock and themselves. Civilizations never started in areas without water because they would most likely die out. example: no cities have ever lived in the middle of the Sahara desert. The only exception was the Eygptian civilization who settled along the Nile River.
