Geography is the study of places and the relationships between people and their environments. Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth's surface and the human societies spread across it. Historical geography is the study of the geographies of the past and how the past is represented in geographies of the present. This website explores Frisia Ulterior, benorth the Old Rhine, and Frisia Citerior beneath the Old Rhine.
