Many Greek historians, like Heroditus, felt that it was more important to understand geography and then look at the history of a place. He was one of the first historians to realize that the Greeks must have come from an earlier people, based on the stories that were told by the different ethnic groups he came across during his travels.

Why all history must be treated geographically and all geography?

I am not sure that all history must be treated geographically, but certainly geography does play an important role in what happened to a country or a population. For example, the availability of lakes, rivers, and oceans made it possible for ancient people to travel and to find food. The presence of certain kinds of minerals, or the presence of certain plants, or whether soil was good for growing food, all of these things are factors. Were there mountains that prevented people from getting from one place to another? Was there a harsh climate that made it difficult for people to survive? Knowing about the geography of a time and a place helps us to understand how people lived, where they went, and how successful their journeys were.
