The Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, which provided fertile soil and water to grow abundant food, were the two main physical features that supported settlement in Mesopotamia
water
Physical geography significantly influenced the growth of Mesopotamia by providing fertile land and access to vital water sources. The Tigris and Euphrates rivers facilitated irrigation, enabling agriculture to thrive in an otherwise arid environment. This agricultural surplus supported population growth and the development of urban centers. Additionally, the region's location between diverse cultures fostered trade and exchange, further enhancing its growth and complexity.
The main physical characteristic affecting regional settlement patterns in the Middle East is water.
There are really three important geographic features of Mesopotamia. It is made up of an area of land known as "the fertile crescent". This land lies between and around two important rivers that give this rich area its life-- the Tigris and Euphrates.
The two rivers of Mespotamia (The Tigris and The Eupharates rivers) supported early civilization because the rivers ran right through Mesopotamia they brought silt. (Silt is fertile and goood farmland.) Since there was silt, it was easier to farm which made alot of food surplus. Since there was so much food, people came to Mespotamia and then it kept growing.

There are both fertile plateaus and river valleys.

People were attracted to the Sittingbourne settlement due to its location on the River Swale, providing access to water for transportation and trade. Additionally, the fertile agricultural land surrounding Sittingbourne supported farming activities, making it a desirable area for settlement.

Three physical features found on a map of Mesopotamia are the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, the Zagros Mountains to the northeast, and the Arabian Desert to the south.

The physical features of the Great Plains that impeded western settlement are not either trees or river. The unstable change of phenomenon like bad weather, low rain fall, hot winds, blizzards are some of its features.
River valleys and fertile plateaus.
Attractive physical features for human settlement in Africa include access to water sources, fertile land for agriculture, moderate climate, and proximity to trade routes. Repelling physical features may include extreme arid or wet climates, dense forests with limited arable land, and regions prone to natural disasters like flooding or droughts.
