A section of this book states: ‘Cultural geography examines the two-way relationship between geography and culture and shows how environment and human culture influence each other. The present book, with a descriptive-analytical approach, has tried to provide a coherent picture of the ecological, religious, and cultural characteristics of Semnan Province. Accurate knowledge of the cultural, social, economic, and religious conditions of each region is essential for planning, policymaking, budget allocation, and cultural interaction; because disregard for the cultural-religious diversity of regions can lead to errors in decision-making.’
