What areas of the world are considered temperate?

The temperate zones are located between the tropics and the polar regions, in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. They are characterized by moderate climates, with four distinct seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

In general, the temperate zones extend from about 23.5 degrees latitude to 66.5 degrees latitude, both north and south of the equator.

Here are some specific areas of the world that are considered temperate:

Northern Hemisphere:

- Europe (except for the far northern and southern regions)

- Northern Asia (including parts of Russia, China, and Japan)

- Southern Africa (including parts of South Africa, Namibia, and Lesotho)

The temperate zones have a variety of plant and animal life, with many species that are adapted to the changing seasons. temperate areas are home to a diverse range of human cultures and civilizations, as they offer favorable conditions for human habitation and agriculture
