Iberian Peninsula

Explanation:

The Iberian Peninsula refers to the peninsula that is located in the southwestern part of Europe. It mainly occupies the country of Spain and Portugal. The name Iberian Peninsula is actually derived from the ancient inhabitants who were commonly known as the Iberians by the Greeks

The Pyrenees mountain range acts as a land barrier that is present in the northeastern side and it separates the Iberian Peninsula and Europe. This peninsula is again split from North Africa by the narrow Strait of Gibraltar towards the southern part.
