Answer 1

The majority of the mountains in Southwest Asia and North Africa are located in the **Northeast** (specifically referring to the Zagros and Elburz mountain ranges in Iran, as well as the mountains in the Caucasus region). However, depending on the context and specific geographic areas being referred to, one might also consider the **Southwest** region significant due to mountain ranges like the Atlas Mountains in Morocco and the Anti-Atlas. But broadly, for the region in question as a whole, the answer is typically **Northeast**.
