But yes, the latitude and size of the landmasses will have an impact on the climate. Moving them will make the climates different there. It's possible to guess what it would look like by extrapolation of what we already have but it's hard to guess what a super panga would trigger in term on monsoon (take Asia but make everything bigger is a starting point but can't say it's a good one)
Well certain cultures in the story live in areas with topographical and climate features that are similar to our world. Places like northern Africa, western and eastern Europe, the Mediterranean, northern Europe, etc. If I place them in certain areas on the world that type of climate I'm going for may end up being something else entirely, and thus won't work.
