What mountain range separate Asia from Europe?
The Ural Mountains of Russia, and the Black Sea and Caspian Sea farther south, are generally considered the dividing line between Europe and Asia, although the two are technically one continental landmass.
Countries in the Caucacus Mountains such as Georgia, Armenia, and Turkey are often described as "western Asia" because they are more closely related to that region, although they may also be referred to as "eastern Europe."

Where was the largest population of Jews found in Europe?
Today, only about 1,500,000 Jews live throughout Europe. Prior to the Holocaust, the Jewish population was well into the double digits (perhaps about 15,000,000). 6,000,000 Jews perished due to the Holocaust, which significantly dropped the Jewish population in Europe. Most of those who survived migrated to other countries (mainly the US or the UK), and later to Israel (once it existed in 1948). Prior to the Holocaust, the majority of Jews lived in Eastern Europe and Central Europe. The European countries that had the largest Jewish populations included Poland, Russia, France, Germany, etc. However, these countries did not necessarily have the largest number of Jews who fell victim to the Holocaust. Today, the majority of Jews live in Western Europe. The European countries with the largest Jewish populations are France, Russia, the UK, and Germany.

Why does Europe use A4 size paper and the US uses a different size?
The simple answer is that A4 is a metric paper size and used in countries that have adopted the metric system. A4 paper is used not only in Europe, but in fact is used in all countries with the exception of the US and by proximity Canada and Mexico. It is possible, however, to buy A4 paper in the US -- usually online.
A4 (roughly similar to US letter) is a paper size specification (part of the ISO 216 paper size system). The so-called "A" range of paper sizes are a series of sheets starting at A0 and continuing all the way to A10. Each successive format is smaller than its predecessor. Thus A0 is the largest and A10 the smallest. A0 has an area of 1 square meter (1m2).
The "A" series is defined so that the ration of the width to the height is 1:1.4142 (1.4142 is the square root of 2). What this means is that each paper size will fit exactly in its predecessor: if you divide A0 along its height by two, you get two A1 sized pages. If you divide an A1 sheet along its height into two, you get two A2 sheets.
There are many useful properties of the "A" series paper sizes. For more information, see
