Sociology is a systematic study of happenings that relate to society and the relationships that form among the members of society.

This field started first as August Compte in 1830 proposed a science based on the methods similar to the ones that apply to hard science thereby pursuing to unveil the secrets about how groups in society come together and work for different purposes.
