An axiomatic system is an organized logical structure consisting of undefined<br />

terms, axioms, defined terms, a system of inference rules and theorems. A<br />

model for an axiomatic system is an interpretation of this system, consisting of<br />

the attribution of particular meanings to the undefined terms, in order that the<br />

axioms, read in the light of this interpretation, become true propositions.<br />

In this work we will present plane geometries, from abstract to neutral or<br />

absolute geometries. We will make a brief reference to Euclidean and<br />

hyperbolic plane geometries, whose axiomatic systems are categorical. Finally,<br />

we will present the real cartesian plane and Poincaré half plane as models for<br />

the Euclidean and hyperbolic geometries, respectively.
