I do not know the adjective for this, but this is the sixth one with the same question- you only need to post it once.

Here is one article listing some uses of definite articles. Yes, definite articles are commonly used with abstract nouns like freedom, liberty, justice, equality, etc. Abstract nouns have gender just like tangible nouns. You aren't referring to neuter nouns are you (lo+adjectives) like «lo mejor» or «lo peor»?

Whether a definite article is used with geographical names varies with the object or name.
