Geopolitical describes ideas and activities about the way a country's place, land, and people shape its and its ties with other countries — or the study of that. A geopolitical question is not only 'Who is in power?' It is also 'Where are they, what do they sit on, who lives there, and what does that force them to care about?' Oil under the ground, a narrow sea, a long border, a huge population: these become political facts. News writers love this adjective: geopolitical tension, a geopolitical risk, geopolitical consequences. It sounds serious and a little academic. Though actually people stretch it. Sometimes they only mean 'international' or 'about world power,' even when land and location are not doing much work in the sentence. The tidy meaning is about place and people as political forces; the loose meaning is just 'big world .'
