The country described in the sentence, where prevailing winds move from west to east and air currents tend toward the left, is likely located between 30 degrees south and 60 degrees south latitude. This area corresponds to the mid-latitudes in the Southern Hemisphere, where the prevailing westerlies and the Coriolis effect cause air currents to tend toward the left in the southern hemisphere (deflecting toward the east).
