Question

Which factors according to you plays an important role in uneven distribution of population??​

Answer 1

The main factors determining population distribution are : climate, landforms, topography, soil, energy

and mineral resources, accessibility like distance from sea coast, natural harbours, navigable rivers or

canals, cultural factors, political boundaries, controls on migration and trade, government policies, types

of economic activities, technology including type of farming and transportation facilities, social

organization and but not the least, demographic factors like changes in natural increase and migration.

Adverse physical conditions and lack of sufficient opportunities for means of livelihood have been

mainly responsible for discouraging inhabitation in certain areas. Climatic conditions are perhaps the

most important of all the geographic influences on population distribution. Apart from physical factors

several social, demographic, economic, political and historical factors affect population distribution
