The North European Plain is known for its vast, flat terrain, which facilitates agriculture and settlement. It features a temperate climate with fertile soil, making it one of the most agriculturally productive regions in Europe. Additionally, the plain is characterized by a network of rivers and waterways that enhance transportation and trade. Lastly, its geographic location serves as a natural corridor for movement and migration throughout history.

The real north refers to the direction pointing towards the North Pole, which is the northernmost point on Earth. The geographic north, on the other hand, refers to the North Pole when considering the Earth's rotation and the geographic coordinates on maps. They may not always align perfectly due to variations in the Earth's magnetic field.
Magnets, man...
The geographic north pole behaves as a magnetic south pole because opposite magnetic poles attract each other. This means that the north-seeking pole of a compass needle (which is used to determine direction) points toward the magnetic north pole, which is near the geographic north pole. Thus, the geographic north pole is essentially a magnetic south pole in terms of magnetism.
