It gives a more complete knowledge of the nature, population and economy needed to develop its policy development; monitors the state of nature, is involved in the development of a system of measures to combat the negative effects of human impact on nature; predicts changes and the development of individual territories.

Geographical education is a sound basis for the education of prudent master of his country and the Earth as a common home of humanity. It can effectively participate in the education of patriotism and internationalism, in the awareness of the modern world and humanity in its diversity and unity. The growing interest in the study of geography can be explained by several factors:

-orientation Only on mental development of pupils is now recognized as insufficient. It is obvious that in the educational process knowledge must go hand in hand with the experience.

-In The study of modern geography focuses on the person, the human world, the culture of individual peoples, especially their way of life, religion, relationship to nature, that is enhanced by the humanitarian wing of geography; enhanced civilized direction in the knowledge of past and present in geography, a growing interest in the phenomena of historical geography.

But it is impossible to forecast changes in the nature without data on economic activities of people, and its impact on the environment. You can not define a policy development in the region without considering the peculiarities of its nature and people. Thus, the solution of these problems requires a comprehensive, integrated study of the country as a whole and its individual regions. A related study of their nature, population, economy and the relationships between them.
