| Summary | "Geography of the Land" by Herbert G. Ogden is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century, specifically in 1891. This work is presented as an annual report to the National Geographic Society and discusses various geographic and geopolitical developments, particularly focusing on Africa and the Western Hemisphere. The book offers insights into the changing boundaries, colonial aspirations, and the impact of geographic exploration during this period. In this report, Ogden evaluates the division of Africa among colonial powers, addressing the implications of such territorial claims and the potential for future conflicts due to undefined boundaries. He highlights significant developments, such as England's expanding influence in northern Africa and the dynamics of territorial disputes involving other European nations. The report also touches on developments in the Americas, including the creation of the Bureau of the American Republics and discussions surrounding intercontinental railways, as well as ongoing projects like the Nicaragua Canal. By examining these geographic phenomena and their implications, Ogden provides a comprehensive look at the political and economic forces shaping the landscape of the time.
