5.Geographically, the peninsula is generally divided into three zones: steppes, mountains and southern coast. The comparatively small territory of the Crimean Peninsula has diverse relief, landscape and natural conditions. The greater part of the peninsula is a plain, mountains make up only 5 % of its territory. The Crimean mountains stretch in a curved arc from Sevastopol to Feodosia over a distance of 150 km. They don’t let bitter steppe winds into the southern coast. The highest peak of the Crimean mountains Roman Kosh is 1545 metres high. Numerous kurgans, or burial mounds of the ancient Scythians are scattered across the Crimean steppes. There are several bays and harbors on the Crimean coastline (the Bay of Karkinit, the Bay of Kalamita, the ports of Yevpatoria and Sevastopol, the Bay of Arabat and others). The saline Lake Syvash is the natural border between Crimean peninsula and Ukrainian mainland.

Summers can be hot (28 C/82.4 F Jul average) and winters are cool (−0.3 C/31.5°F Jan average). Because of its climate, the southern Crimean coast is a popular beach and sun resort for Ukrainian and Russian tourists.
7.The territory of Crimea was conquered and controlled many times throughout its history. The Cimmerians, Greeks,Scythians, Goths, Khazars, the state of Kievan Rus', Byzantine Greeks, Ottoman Turks, Golden Horde Tatars and the Mongols controlled Crimea in its earlier history. During the Second War II Crimea was the scene of some of the bloodiest battles. The Axis forces tried to advance through the narrow Perekop Isthmus linking Crimea to the Soviet mainland. The peninsula was freed from the Nazi invadors in 1944.
