1. Germany's Geography
During the last Ice Age, glaciers (from the Alps in the south and Scandinavia in the north) occurred four times and shaped much of Germanys land.
http://library.thinkquest.org/J0112187/germany_geography.htm
During the last Ice Age, glaciers (from the Alps in the south and Scandinavia in the north) occurred four times and shaped much of Germanys land. After this happened, the glaciers had formed five regions, The North Germany Lowlands, The South German Hills, The Central Uplands, The Alpine foothills (of The Southern Germany Hills) and the Rhine River Valley. In all these regions you will find out why Germany has become one of the top vacationing spots. Since Germany is located in the heart of Europe, it has many neighbors. Nations touching its western boundary are the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxemburg, and France. The total area of Germany is 137,854 feet, a little bit smaller than the state of Montana in the United States. Germany includes flat lands, hills, lakes, rivers, mountains, and large areas of forest.
Climate
Germany is located in the world’s temperate zone, where temperatures change dramatically from season to season. Weather in the western part of the country is affected by the Atlantic Ocean. The ocean tends to warm the air in winter and cool it in the summer. The eastern part of the nation has a more normal climate with hot summers and cold winters. In the northwestern part of the nation, the average temperature is about fifty degrees Fahrenheit. To the south, the temperature is warmer by about three degrees Fahrenheit.
North Germany Lowlands
Northern Germany is along the coast of the North and Baltic seas. The largest land in Germany is the Lowlands. Almost the entire region (also known as the North German Plain) lies 300 feet above sea level. The region is drained by rivers that flow northward into the North Sea or the Baltic Sea. These rivers are the Elbe, Ems, Oder, Rhine, and Weser, all of which are important waterways. In the northernmost part of the country, the important Kiel Canal links the Baltic to the North Sea. The wide river valleys, as well as land along the seacoasts, have soft, fertile soil. Between the valleys are large areas covered with sand and gravel. These areas are called heathlands. The sand and gravel were buried by glaciers, which moved across much of Europe thousands of years ago. The glaciers also formed many small lakes in the region.

    German Geography Germany is located in the Central Europe, bordering the Baltic Sea and the North Sea, between the Netherlands and Poland, south of Denmark. Roughly the size of Montana and situated even farther north, unified Germany has an area of 356,959 square kilometers. Extending 853 kilometers from its northern border with Denmark to the Alps in the south, it is the sixth largest country in Europe. At its widest, Germany measures approximately 650 kilometers from the Belgian-German border in the west to the Polish frontier in the east.
    Topography : With its irregular, elongated shape, Germany provides an excellent example of a recurring sequence of landforms found the world over. A plain dotted with lakes, moors, marshes, and heaths retreats from the sea and reaches inland, where it becomes a landscape of hills crisscrossed by streams, rivers, and valleys. These hills lead upward, gradually forming high plateaus and woodlands and eventually climaxing in spectacular mountain ranges. As of the mid-1990s, about 37 percent of the country's area was arable; 17 percent consisted of meadows and pastures; 30 percent was forests and woodlands; and 16 percent was devoted to other uses. Geographers often divide Germany into four distinct topographic regions: the North German Lowland; the Central German Uplands; Southern Germany; and the Alpine Foreland and the Alps.

The central location and the three major rivers that drain northwards after traversing the country; provided an ideal environment for the development of civilization. Germany is well known for its remarkably diverse landscape; covering a surface area of 367,000 square kilometers; although the country is smaller than its neighbor France and Spain; what it lacks for in terms of size is made up for in its spectacular lakes, forest lands, hilly areas and the Bavarian Alps. The country is the most populated nation in Europe and is divided into five distinct topographical regions:  The North Plains:  The sandy low lands are in stark contrast with the mysterious heaths and moors and the glorious lakes along with the several rivers that add a touch of blue and life to what would have otherwise been arid plains. The northern most extremity of the country is the island of Sylt. The North Sea (Noordsee) and the Baltic Sea line its northern shores; the region of the northern plains covers the maximum area in the country and almost all of the landform is 300 feet below sea level. The major rivers that drain the region such as the Elb, Oder, Ems Weser and Rhine all flow either to the Baltic or to the North sea. They two water bodies are linked by the Kiel Canal and most of the rivers are used as waterways for transportation of goods. The northern region is also popular for its heathlands; areas that are covered in gravel and sand that was brought down by the glaciers thousands of years ago.
