The Caucasus /ËkÉËkÉsÉs/ or Caucasia /kÉËËkeÉªÊÉ/ is a region at the border of Europe and Asia, situated between the Black and the Caspian seas.t includes Southwestern Russia and northern parts of Georgia and Azerbaijan. The Transcaucasus is bordered on the north by Russia, on the west by the Black Sea and Turkey, on the east by the Caspian Sea, and on the south by Iran. It includes the Caucasus Mountains and surrounding lowlands.
I found it interesting that the Caucasus Mountains are technically considered to be a continuation of the Himalayas. The entire Caucasus region is prone to strong earthquakes. The highest peak is Mount Elbrus (18,510 ft.) which is considered the highest point in Europe. The climate of the Caucasus varies according to elevation and latitude location. For example, average temperature decreases as elevation rises.
