  • Interactions of Land and Water in Europe
    Name Date Interactions of Land and Water in Europe Read the following passage two times. Read once for understanding. As you read the second time, underline or highlight each proper name of a physical feature of Europe. The interactions of land and water in Europe have shaped the geography of Europe. These interactions have also shaped the lives of the people who live there. The continent of Europe is nearly 10,359,952 square kilometers (4,000,000 square miles). Its finger-like peninsulas extend into the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans and the Baltic and Mediterranean Seas. The oceans and seas lie to the north, south, and west of the continent. Only the eastern edge of the continent is landlocked. It is firmly attached to its larger neighbor, Asia, along Russia and Kazakhstan’s low Ural Mountain range. Mountains, rivers, and seacoasts dominate the landscape from north to south and east to west. Europe is the only continent with no large deserts. The Scandinavian Peninsula and islands of Great Britain are partially covered with eroded mountains laced with fjords and lakes carved out by ancient glaciers. The northern edge of Europe lies in the frozen, treeless tundra biome. But forests once covered more than 80 percent of the continent. Thousands of years of clearing the land for farming and building towns and cities has left only a few large forest areas remaining in Scandinavia, Germany, France, Spain, and Russia. Warm, wet air from the Atlantic Ocean allowed agriculture, or farming, to thrive in chilly northern Europe. This is especially true on the North European Plain, which stretches all the way from France and southern England to Russia.

  • Chapter 19 Medieval Europe (A.D. 500 - 1475) the Geography of Europe and Feudalism and the Rise of Towns
    Chapter 19 Medieval Europe (A.D. 500 - 1475) The Geography of Europe and Feudalism and the Rise of Towns Part 1: Geography of Europe ​ Guiding Question: How did geography shape life in Europe after the fall of Rome? During the 400s, Germanic groups invaded the Western Roman Empire. In a.d. 476, these groups overthrew the last emperor in Rome and brought the Empire to an end. Europe then entered a new era called the Middle Ages, or medieval times. This was a 1,000-year period between ancient and modern times. During the Middle Ages, Western Europe was divided into many kingdoms, and Catholic Christianity strongly influenced society. Physical geography shaped Europe's development. The continent of Europe is a huge peninsula, with many smaller peninsulas branching out from it. As a result, most land in Europe lies within 300 miles (483 km) of a seacoast. This encouraged trade and helped the European economy to grow. Rivers and Seas Rivers also played an important role in Europe's growth. ​ ​ Major rivers, such as the Rhine, Danube, Seine, and Po, flow from inland mountains into the oceans and seas surrounding the continent. These rivers are navigable, or wide and deep enough for ships to use. People and goods can sail easily from inland areas to the open sea and, from there, to other parts of the world. Europe's seas and rivers provided protection as well as possibilities for trade. The English Channel, for example, separated the islands of Britain and Ireland from the rest of Europe. As a result, these people were far enough away to be largely safe from the many wars fought on Europe's mainland.

Encyclopedic Entry Europe: Human Geography Culture and Politics For the complete encyclopedic entry with media resources, visit: http://education.nationalgeographic.com/encyclopedia/europe-human-geography/ Europe is the second-smallest continent. The name Europe, or Europa, is believed to be of Greek origin, as it is the name of a princess in Greek mythology. The name Europe may also come from combining the Greek roots eur- (wide) and -op (seeing) to form the phrase “wide-gazing.” Europe is often described as a “peninsula of peninsulas.” A peninsula is a piece of land surrounded by water on three sides. Europe is a peninsula of the Eurasian supercontinent and is bordered by the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the west, and the Mediterranean, Black, and Caspian seas to the south. Europe’s main peninsulas are the Iberian, Italian, and Balkan, located in southern Europe, and the Scandinavian and Jutland, located in northern Europe. The link between these peninsulas has made Europe a dominant economic, social, and cultural force throughout recorded history. Europe’s physical geography, environment and resources, and human geography can be considered separately. Today, Europe is home to the citizens of Albania, Andorra, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Kosovo, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Malta, Moldova, Monaco, Montenegro, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, San Marino, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland), and Vatican City.
