The Rhine, Danube, Vistula, Volga, Seine, and Po rivers made it easy to travel into the interior of Europe and encouraged people to trade.
Seas and rivers provided safety and opportunities for trade.
As a continent, Europe is a large peninsula that is divided into many smaller peninsulas.
Most of Europe lies within 300 miles of an ocean or sea and this encouraged trade and fishing.

Bodies of water also kept people separated and allowed them to develop their own distinct cultures.
Europe has many mountain ranges which made it difficult for one group to rule all of Europe and encouraged the development of independent kingdoms.
