Where are Europe's major peninsulas located in relation to each other?

(The peninsulas my textbook refers to are the Iberian, Italian, Balkan, Jutland, and the Scandinavian Peninsula.)

You and your textbook are right.

Answered by Ms. Sue
Oops -- those are the major peninsulas. But your question is where are they in relation to each other.

Yes.
Answered by Ms. Sue
What is your answer about their locations in relationship with each other?

This map names all of those peninsulas except for the Jutland Peninsula. It's in northern Europe and contains the country of Denmark.

The Iberian Peninsula is in the far southwestern part of Europe. The Italian Peninsula is east of the Iberian, and the Balkan is east of the Italian Peninsula. The Scandinavian Peninsula is North of Jutland, in the far northern part of Europe.

Thank you, but may I ask another question?

Why might each peninsula be considered a region?

A: Each peninsula might be considered a region due to the magnitude of them?
Answered by Ms. Sue
No. Keep looking.

Answered by Ms. Sue
What do you mean by the magnitude of them?

Answered by Anonymous
A: Each peninsula might be considered a region because each peninsula is a country?
Answered by Ms. Sue
No. The Iberian Peninsula and the Scandinavian Peninsula each contains two countries. Several countries occupy the Balkan Peninsula.

Each peninsula might be considered a region due to the different climates?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Does your book say anything about each peninsula being isolated? All are surrounded on three sides by the ocean and thus have only one side in common with other countries and land masses.

Thanks for the information. :-)

Please check with your personal teacher about some of my answers. What does s/he think about them -- especially my explanation of how humans have changed the environment.
