If the earth rotated backwards (seasons, America, South, winter)

[Turnerbro]

I just find this interesting. Imagine if North Africa was a lush subtropical forest. The Gulf of Mexico being mostly surrounded by desert and England being bitterly cold. Crazy to think about how the earth would look different if it rotated backwards. Not sure if this outcome would be better or worse. I wonder if Europe would even be habital.

Lol. That would be interesting.

I think it would basically be the same as Turnovia but without the seasons being reversed.

It would also be a little more like actual Earth in that Eurasia, North America etc would experience perihelion in their winter and aphelion in their summer. In Turnovia it would be reversed so the greater continentality of the hemisphere with those continents would be further increased.

It actually seems like that would be better since Australia and northern Africa would be arable, and these areas are larger than the North American Midwest and the South American pampas.
