• The statement: "To the east of the coastal country, some of Syria's major cities lie on steppes, which are characterized by a large plateau."
• Syria's geography consists of a narrow coastal plain in the west, a mountainous region (coastal range), and a large semi-arid plateau (the Syrian Desert/steppe) to the east where major cities like Aleppo, Hama, and Damascus lie along the transition zone. This plateau/steppe region characterizes the eastern portion of the country.
• Therefore, the statement is True.
