Landforms of Europe and Russia

Europe and Russia have two very interesting forms located in the northern regions of the world. The mountain of Europe, as the Alps make up the highest mountain ranges of Europe, the highest peak being 13,000 ft. high. Located in the Sierra Nevada in southern Spain, the Pyrenees mountains are located between France and Spain, the Apennines, which outline. the peninsula of Italy, and the mountains of the Carpathians, which are situated in Slovakia; all of Europe to highlight the mountainous landscape.

The mountains of Russia are more scattered over the land. The snowy mountains of Russia include the Caucasus mountains between the Black and Caspian seas. These mountains rise above 24,000ft with peaks that are above 10,000ft.

Europe is decorated with many peninsulas. Most of the peninsulas are located in Spain, Norway, Sweden, Italy, Southern Greece, France, Denmark and Portugal. The seas that surround the European peninsulas, small islands and regions include the Celtic Sea, in the west, the North Sea (N.W.), the Norwegian Sea (N.E.), the Baltic Sea (N.E. from Denmark to Estonia), River valleys are of great importance throughout Europe. The Rhone, Seine, Thames, and Vistula Rivers are used to trade goods throughout Europe. The Danube River is the longest running river in the country and the Rhine River is the second largest river in Europe. In Russia there are many rivers, such as the river Irtysh and Angara; indeed, this region generally dominates the flat and lowest plains. The desert location in the southern part of Russia changes from the rugged plain to deciduous and coniferous forests in the heath from the Arctic Ocean. Russia consists mainly of pine and fir and larch forests. Central Russia consists of arid and southern Russia mostly deserts.

European climates range from icy winters to hot summers. Norway, Sweden, and Finland have the farthest north, whence they are called polar climates; This climate is typical of a polar region. The western countries Air drying brings the Mediterranean climate from the Sahara to the southern regions of Europe. The mid-latitude continental climate of the interior of central and eastern Europe. This effect creates very cold winds with freezing temperatures from Russia.

The climate of Russia can be more extreme than that of Europe. The reason for this extreme weather conditions is because this area is very far from any major bodies of water. This makes Russia have the coldest winters and the hottest summers. This is called continence. The hottest places in Russia are around the Black and Caspian seas.

Europe has great advantages when it comes to trading goods across the region. As the river Danube cannot be said as far as the commerce of the Rhine is concerned, yet this river flows through more countries than any other river in the world. The river Rhine is the busiest body of water in the world. The Mediterranean Sea is one of the world’s major shipping lanes. The Atlantic Ocean is another way for Europe to export and import goods with America and other countries. Russia cannot have as many river routes as Europe and because of the excessive weather conditions; This area is less involved in trade. From my perspective, I believe that much of the business that has been done through Russia consists of air and train travel.
