9.지 리 - The Republic of Yemen is bordered in the northwest, north and northeast by Saudi Arabia, in the east by
Oman and in the south by the Gulf of Aden. To the west lies the Red Sea. The islands of Perim and Karam in the southern
Red Sea are also part of the Republic. Yemen is predominantly mountainous, supporting terraced agriculture. The Hadramaut
is a range of high mountains in the centre of the country. Highlands rise steeply in central Yemen, ranging in height from
approximately 200m (656ft) to the 4000m (13,123ft) peak of Jabal Nabi Shoveb. In contrast is Tihama, a flat semi-desert
coastal plain to the west, 50-100km (30-60 miles) wide. Surface water flows down from the mountains through the valleys
during the rainy season and the area is cultivated for cotton and grain.
