Greece, with an overall land area of approx. 132,000 km2, is located in southeastern Europe (approximately between latitudes 34° and 42° N, and longitudes 19° and 30° E). It is both a maritime country, with numerous islands and a coastline of over 14,000 km in length, and a mountainous one, with four-fifths of the mainland consisting of mountainous terrain. The climate in Greece is predominantly of the Mediterranean type, with mild and rainy winters, relatively warm and dry summers and sunshine almost all year round.
