Regional Geography	Regional geography is a branch of geography that studies the world's regions. A region itself is defined as a part of the Earth's surface with one or many similar characteristics that make it unique from other areas. Regional geography studies the specific unique characteristics of places related to their culture, economy, topography, climate, politics and environmental factors such as their different species of flora and fauna. Humboldt was the early pioneers of regional geography.
Systematic Geography	In 1810, Ritter prepared a more complete systematic geography of the world.
Stop-and-go determinism	Griffith Taylor in 1920 introduced Neo-determinism or ‘stop and go determinism’.  According to Taylor Man is able to accelerate, slow or stop the progress of a country’s development. It is a middle path between the two ideas of environmental determinism and possibilism.
Probabilism	O. H. K. Spate, a British geographer, advanced the concept of probabilism. He presented the view that “although the physical environment does not uniquely determine human actions, it does nonetheless make some responses more likely than others”.
