In my opinion peninsulas, islands, and varied landforms make up Europe and its study equally attracts more interest as the other continents, and for its case the fast pace of growth and status as a first world continent. I agree with Del Casino, Knox, Liverman, Marston & Robbins (2013) that the continent lies northward in the globe purposely affecting growth of seasons and the mood of its people, which has consideration as a factor with influence on the evolution of European character. It is also paramount to argue that the country borders with oceans that affect the climates of its coastal regions not experienced in the interior areas that experience an atmosphere of the northern positioning of the continent.
A quick consideration of its physical features shows that the continent has four distinct landforms with biodiversity in the ecosystem and a physical environment that provides raw materials and natural resources for human activity. In my view, the continent has benefited from its position due to the significant natural resources present in the area and ease of access to water from the oceans and seas used in industries for production. Just as our towns and cities grow due to industrial activities that promote migration to urban centers, the industrial revolution in Europe can as well get the relation to the growth of its urban centers and technical societies.
It is notable that the accessibility of the continent and its positioning allows it to connect with other continents and draw resources for the industrial production of which some of the products serve our societies and people. The different regions of Europe have diverse gains that encourage different types of economic activities and continental growth, and the extraction of natural resource deposits has supported growth in Europe. I therefore regard the continent to have a high percentage contribution of the general fish consumption around the globe. We can agree that its strategic position and the large water bodies bordering it present an advantage. We can agree that the spur growth of the region was not accidental and its positioning compared to other continents and historical developments favored its growth.
