Its origins can be traced back over a thousand years to exotic travelers' tales of
unique cultures and peoples whose behavior piqued the interest of early
explorers.
Sociology is the study of society, it is the study of social life, it is the study of
everything that goes around us. Its like when you go to a new city and you see
the different architecture, different shops, you see the different people, that is the
function of our society, of our values of society, of how we think, of how we
interact.
Political science is a branch of social science that studies government systems

as well as the examination of political activities and conduct. It covers a lot of
ground in terms of theory and practice politics, which is often thought of as

humans structure their societies. I enjoyed most on all activities. I want to learn more on various
