COUNTRY STUDIES Armenia - GEOGRAPHY Austria - GEOGRAPHY Austria is a small, predominantly mountainous country located in south-central Europe. It has a total area of 83,859 square kilometers, about twice the size of Switzerland and slightly smaller than the state of Maine. The landlocked country shares national borders with Switzerland and the tiny principality of Liechtenstein to the west (200 kilometers together), Germany (784 kilometers) and the Czech Republic and Slovakia (568 kilometers together) to the north, Hungary to the east (346 kilometers), and Slovenia (311 kilometers) and Italy (430 kilometers) to the south. The westernmost third of the somewhat pear-shaped country consists of a narrow corridor between Germany and Italy that is between thirty-two and sixty kilometers wide. The rest of Austria lies to the east and has a maximum north-south width of 280 kilometers. The country measures almost 600 kilometers in length, extending from Lake Constance on the Austrian-Swiss border in the west to the Neusiedler See on the Austrian-Hungarian border in the east. The contrast between these two lakesone in the Alps and the other a typical steppe lake on the westernmost fringe of the Hungarian Plainillustrates the diversity of Austria's landscape. Landform Regions Human Geography Climate Austria - Landform Regions The two best-known features of the Austrian landscape are the Alps and the Danube River. The Danube has its source in southwestern Germany and flows through Austria before emptying into the Black Sea. It is the only major European river that flows eastward, and its importance as an inland waterway has been enhanced by the completion in 1992 of the Rhine-Main-Danube Canal in Bavaria, which connects the Rhine and Main rivers with the Danube and makes possible barge traffic from the North Sea to the Black Sea.

Elevation extremes: Highest: 4 090 m (mount Aragats) Lowest: 450 m (River Debed) The Republic of Armenia covers over 10% of the Armenian plateau, which is 500m higher than the neighboring Asia Minor and Iranian plateaus. Relatively recent volcanic activity on the Armenian plateau has resulted in large volcanic formations, and highlands consisting of a series of both small and large mountain massifs. A number of lakes (including Lakes Sevan, Van and Urmia) have also been formed as a result of tectonic activity in the Armenian plateau. Since early geological history the land surface of Armenia, and the surrounding Armenian plateau, has been mountainous, with further mountain building occurring during the Cenozoic era (particularly after the Miocene). These complex tectonic shifts have resulted in a country dominated by a by a series of mountain massifs and valleys. The tectonic movements which created the series of folded ridges which dominate the country, also resulted in extensive volcanic activity. The climatic changes over the last million years have also left their mark on the country, with evidence of two glacial periods (Riss and Wurm) preserved on almost all mountains over 3000m.
