What would the geology and climate of a supposed landmass near the pole be like, assuming a thoroughly warmer planet?

Question

I am designing a fantasy setting for pen-and-paper role-playing (and potential novel) purposes. I have decided that a continent be situated right on a Pole of some imaginary planet with axial tilt comparable to Earth. My question is: is it possible to achieve environmental conditions in the Continent at least somewhat similar to those of current-day Europe? My understanding of Earth climate is that the poles, while extremely cold, are also very dry in terms of precipitation. I have understood that this is mostly due to the axial tilt but I'm not sure. I have heard that in a warmer part of Earth's history the poles had vegetation - is this possible even with the ever-present high-pressure zone? I guess one way the continent could be habitable is to be full of freshwater rivers, originating from glaciers high atop of some mountains. I guess such mountains are plausible near the pole (I don't think the movement and mutual interaction of continental plates are somehow dependent of the latitude, are they?) Thank's in advance for your great contributions!

Answer 1

No, movement of plates are not dependent on latitude.

In order for you to achieve the environmental conditions you are talking about would to increase your tilt greater than 23.5 degrees, and specify the size of the orbital plane. Remember, we experience winter when we are tilted away from the earth, not because we are further away.
