hi mate,
Answer:
1)The Caspian Sea or Mazandaran Sea is a landlocked sea between Asia and Europe (European Russia).
2) It is the world's largest inland body of water, with a surface area of 371,000 km² (143,000 sq. mi.), and therefore has characteristics common to both seas and lakes.
Explanation:
- It is often listed as the world's largest lake, although it is not a freshwater lake.
- It contains about 3.5 times more water, by volume, than all five of North America's Great Lakes combined.
- The Caspian was once part of the Tethys Ocean, but became landlocked about 5.5 million years ago due to plate tectonics.
i hope it helps you.
