摘要:The article discusses the North-Eastern Black sea region in the context of historical and climate-geographical processes. The attention is paid to the socio-economic factors that influenced the development of the area. The materials for the preparation of this article are the latest publications on history and geography (including climatology) in the North-Eastern Black sea region and adjacent territories. The methodological basis of the study are the principles of objectivity and historicism, suggesting an unbiased approach to the analysis of the studied problems, a critical attitude to the sources, the judgments in the analysis of the totality of the facts and the screening phenomena in the development and the context of the historical situation. The authors conclude that a geographic location had a great influence on the historical development of the region. The presence of the warm Black sea has identified the development of the district over a number of centuries, since it was crossed by important trade routes.
