What's the climate like in Iran and Iraq?

Ichiro has a vast territory and diverse climate types, which are mainly divided into three types:

The first category, desert climate and semi-desert climate. Most parts of Iran and the southern coastal areas belong to this climate, which is characterized by a long dry and hot season lasting for seven months, with an average annual rainfall of 30-250 mm.

The second category, mountain climate. Mountain climate can be divided into cold mountain climate and general mountain climate. The Hanshan climate zone covers 40,000 square kilometers, all of which are in high mountains, including Albis Mountain, Zagros Mountain, Sahad Peak and Sabalang Peak. The average annual rainfall in this area is more than 500 mm, the general mountainous climate area is 300,000 square kilometers, and the average annual rainfall is 250-600 mm

The third category is the climate of the Caspian Sea. The Caspian Sea region is a long and narrow strip, located between the Caspian Sea and the Elbrus Mountains, with an average annual rainfall of 600-2000 mm.

Climate in Iraq: The mountainous area in the northeast has a Mediterranean climate, while other areas have a tropical desert climate. The highest temperature is above 50℃ in summer and around 0℃ in winter.
