Why does the study of any territory of the mainland of the country begin with a geographical location?

Location on the mainland plays a key role in characterizing a particular region or country, because if you find out in which part a particular site is located, you can determine which climatic zone it falls into, calculate the proximity to the sea, relief, type of natural zone and much more. … This can be illustrated by the example of Switzerland. When you find out that it is located in Central Europe, you understand that there is a temperate climate and mountainous terrain, since the Alps stretch in this part of the mainland.
