      What I think you mean by “natural geography” is just one part of the field. Urban / economic geography (regional dynamics, housing policy, tourism geography, population analysis) and Historical / Social geography (historical urban geography, homelessness, migration, etc) Are big parts of the field of geography. Most of modern geography is interested in both the physical (more geology, climate, biomes, etc) and human aspects, and how they interact.

      Geopolitics is “The study of the relationship among politics and geography, demography, and economics, especially with respect to the foreign policy of a nation,” and in that vein is also a science.
