The Arabian Peninsula is covered by a much drier landscape, characterized by deserts such as the Rub' al Khali (Empty Quarter).
Yes, during the peak of the last ice age, North America was covered by a continental glacier. This massive ice sheet extended as far south as present-day Illinois and New York and shaped much of the landscape we see today.
A bay is a body of water partially surrounded by land, with an opening to the ocean, while a peninsula is a piece of land that is surrounded by water on three sides. In other words, a bay is a body of water while a peninsula is a landform.
This phenomenon is known as the rain shadow effect. As moist air is forced to rise over a mountain range, it cools and releases precipitation on the windward side. By the time the air descends on the leeward side, it is drier and has lost much of its moisture, resulting in a drier climate on that side of the mountain range.
Mesopotamia's landscape was characterized by fertile land between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, known as the "Fertile Crescent." It was a region with flat plains prone to flooding, surrounded by arid deserts. The rivers provided crucial water sources for agriculture and trade.
Approximately 20-25% of the Earth's surface is covered by mountains. This includes ranges such as the Himalayas, Andes, Rockies, and Alps.

The Iberian Peninsula is much larger than the Italian Peninsula. The Iberian Peninsula is about 590,000 km2 in area, while the Italian Peninsula is only about 300,000 km2 in area.
March is still cold in the Arctic. Much of the landscape is covered in snow. The tundra is frozen, as are the oceans until you get far from land. Days are still fairly short.
Much warmer and drier.
Much of Italy is mountainous or hilly. In the mountains there were shepperd communities. Many towns were on hills. People liked to live on hills because they were easier to defend from raiders. This did not stop people from forming settlements in the plains.
