translate English to German: The south, between the Tagus and the Algarve (the Alentejo), features mostly rolling plains and a climate somewhat warmer and drier than in the cooler and rainier north. The Algarve, separated from the Alentejo by mountains, enjoys a Mediterranean climate much like southern Spain.
Die besondere geographische Form des Landes löst unregelmäßige und schnelle Wasserläufen aus, die ins Meer mit langen Mündungstrichtern münden.
