Cultural Geography

Representations of the modern people of the world are strongly differentiated by social strata and subcultures. One family and tribe in pre-industrial society was a common ground. The landowner and the farmer went to a farm. Knight, bourgeois, commoner moved on the same streets, and on their feet, the hoofs of their horses and the wheels of their carriages adhered the same dirt.
