The purpose of PEGS is to categorize information and better evaluate a topic. For instance, looking at the causes of a war we may see all the systems playing a role (who the leader was or how people felt about the government to the issue of poverty or recession in an area). By looking at a topic through these perspectives (the systems of PEGS) it can make a difficult concept easier to understand and making connections to another concept a possibility.
