This sounds like
land - and you are travelling by making different countries.
Sitting on a fish, in the north.
Finland - if sitting on a fish, will be on a fin - is a northern nation.
Sitting on you, further north.
Lapland - if sitting on a person, will be on a lap - is further north. Credit to jafe!
Getting angry, in the west.
Ireland - ire for anger - is on the west of Europe.
Solemn faced, in the east.
Poland - po-faced is humourless and disapproving - is in central Europe.
At the bottom, in the middle.
The Netherlands - nether is below - is in the middle of Europe.
Using rope, in the southeast.
Thailand - sound like tie (using a rope) - is in southeast Asia.

Got it! But @jafe is correct on the second line. My thought is, if you're sitting on a fish or on a person, what exactly would you be sitting on? – Rand al'Thor Jun 05 '19 at 08:24
