Best Answer

"Mesopotamia" comes from Greek and means "land between the rivers". Geographically, the rivers in question are the Tigris and the Euphrates. The heart of this area is now in modern Iraq but Mesopotamia also covers parts of northeastern Syria, southeastern Turkey, and the Khūzestān Province of southwestern Iran.
