Montesquieuتحدث مونتسكييو في كتاب "روح القانون" عن أثر المناخ والتربة في حياة الإنسان:
1- المناخ:
المناخ البارد: شجاعة- نقاء النفس- قوة جسدية.
المناخ الحار: جبن- مكر- ضعف.
2- التربة:
يصل تأثير التربة إلى الحد السياسي ونوع الحكومات:

- التربة الفقيرة = نظام جمهوري وديمقراطية.
- سكان الجزر = الاستقلالية والاستقرار.
