Northern Europe is much flatter and is called the Northern European Plain
Stretches from Atlantic Ocean in the west to the Ural Mountains in the east

Southern Europe: largely warm and sunny climate allows shrubs and trees that don’t need a lot of water.

Northwestern Europe: mild and cooler, wetter climate bring freezing weather in the winter where few plants can survive

A. Many of Europe’s rivers are in the Northern European Plain
1. Some important rivers are the Danube, Thames, Rhine, Rhone, Ural, Volga, Ebro
B. The snow in the southern mountains melts and flows out over the plain on its way to the northward sea.

Vegetation: How geography shapes life
A. Southern Europe: Most people lived on coastal plains (similar to Japan) or in river valleys (like Africa) where the land was flat enough to farm i. Grapes and olives were grown that could survive the
region’s dry summers ii. People raise sheep and goats iii. Many people became traders and seafarers
![Page 36: Geography of Europe](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051419/56815dd8550346895dcc042b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Southern Europe
1. Draw grapes and olives along the Southern coast
2. Add goats and sheep
3. Now, draw boats to represent the traders and seafarers

Northern Europe: Most people lived farther from the sea and most towns grew along the river.

• Draw small houses near the river to represent where people lived.

VI. The Big Idea
A. The river provides transportation and protectionB. Farmers grew many crops C. No mountains surrounded northern Europe
making it easy to invade

Checking for Understanding
What is the boundary between Europe and Asia?
Where are most of Europe’s rivers located? How is the topography of southern Europe different
from that of the Northern European Plain?
What part of Europe do you think was open to more invasions? Why?
