geography put on the priority the need for a conceptual understanding of the interrelationships 
of nature and human society. The ethnic group is inextricably linked with the landscape zone in 
which it arises and develops. When studying the history of any nation, the key factor, the force 
that holds the cradle of each nation in its hands, is the nature of the country. The influence of 
natural, climatic and geographical factors on the specifics of history was noted by almost all 
researchers of the originality of the historical process. The geographical landscape where the 
ethnos has developed and developed to a certain extent influences the emergence and 
functioning of various forms of political organization and social structure. The purpose of the 
study is to consider the influence of the geographical factor on the ethnopolitical processes in 
the steppe, as well as the historical processes of the origin and peculiarities of the Kazakh 
statehood. Based on historical materials and using the concept of geographical determinism, the 
article shows the influence of natural, climatic and geographical factors on the political 
organization and social structure of the state, as well as on the spiritual life of a person and the 
nation as a whole.
