description Studying the regional geography of one country means expanding all associat ed physiographic and human aspects, as well as their interrelation and distributions. This study aims to seek an answer to what actually the scope of geographic region to b e studied to understand one country’s geographic region. We took Indonesia as a case as Indonesia has a very unique geographic position as well as its archipelago. The met hod of this research is using content analysis from related literatures, and from the results of forum group discussions as well as short survey to the foreign summer cours e participants regarding the Indonesia’s geographic region. The results of this study shown the scopes have been identified including the territorial boundaries, continent boundary, administrative border, and its position; physical and landscape; biodiversit y and natural resources; marine resources; the culture: ethnic groups, languages, arts, customs; natural disasters and tourism. Those scopes have been found effective and a ttractive for the participants who joint the summer program. Nevertheless, we also inc luded how the global connectedness to the Indonesian geographic region as a new perspe ctive of regional geography.
