Question

what mountain range limits rainfall around southern europe? the alps the buttes the cyprians

Explanation:

The Alps mountain range acts as a topographic barrier, influencing weather patterns and limiting rainfall in Southern Europe by causing orographic lift (moist air rising over the mountains cools, condenses, and rains on the windward side, leaving the leeward side (Southern Europe) drier). "the Buttes" are not a major European mountain range, and "the Cyprians" refers to people of Cyprus, not a mountain range.
