The History of Rimland Theory
Mackinder’s theory, Heartland Theory, describes the Heartland in the World Island as the key to world dominance.
Mahan’s theory, based on his experience as a naval commander, stresses the importance of controlling coastal regions. His comprehensive ideas draw largely from different battles of naval history.
Adopts and changes the ideas of Halford Mackinder and Alfred Mahan.

Spykman sought to combine Mackinder and Mahan’s theories.Mackinder didn’t take into account:
Russia’s future as an agrarian society.The Industrial Revolution (Western Europe).Russia’s borders (ice, mountains, temperatures).The ocean.

and has access to land and sea.Split into three regions:
European CoastMiddle Eastern DesertAsiatic Monsoon
Further separated into Indian and Chinese
Based more on Mahan’s theory about sea access.
