Is the geocentric theory real?
Depends on what you mean by a theory being real. As a theory it is real. People had thought about it and believed in it. But as a description of reality, it is wrong. The Geocentric theory puts the Earth in the middle, with the Sun and all planets orbiting around the Earth. By now, we're pretty darn sure that's not how it is. The Sun is in the middle, with the planets orbiting around the Sun.
why did people believe geocentric theory?
Because of Ptolemy. This was a case of both secular and religious authorities forcing a theory (which was proven wrong in the ancient world) to be the received wisdom, due to a reluctance to accept new theories. It is taught to scientists nowadays as a warning, to always be on the watch that they do not grow so comfortable with a theory that they will struggle to defend it, even against overwhelming evidence to the contrary..
