→Origin of the concept
==Origin of the concept==
==Origin of the concept==
The origin of the concept of "geo-politics" or "[[political]] [[geography]]" was born in relation to the territories of [[Ukraine]], [[Belarus]], [[Poland]] and the [[Caucuses]], or the [[Intermarium]]. Also ancient [[Scythia]]. The wide-open [[steppe]] of the borderlands between [[Europe]] and [[Asia]], [[The East|East]] and [[The West|West]], [[Orthodox Christianity|Orthodox]], [[Roman Catholic|Catholic]] and [[Muslim]], [[Slav]], [[German]], [[Turk]] and others, with its lack of mountainous terrain to serve as natural boundaries between groups with [[linguistic]], [[cultural]], [[religious]] and [[Traditional values|traditional background]] differences is how the term or study of "geopolitics" came into existence. "Geopolitics" is a 19th & 20th century invention to study the intersection of the [[Occident]] & [[Orient]], with its sordid [[history]] of conflict over many millennia.

Theoretically, it was only by study and interaction between these peoples in an effort to understand each other better that [[racial]], [[ethnic]], and [[violent]] conflict could be reduced between peoples who may be in different stages of their [[social]] and [[economic]] development in comparison with [[Western civilization|Western societies]]. History has shown it hasn't always worked out that way.
