Continents and Regions

Africa and Asia are the two continents that are very near Europe. Africa is located to the south of Europe, while Asia is situated to the east.

The Columbian exchange

60 degrees west passes through South America, specifically in countries such as Brazil, Colombia, and Ecuador.

Europe is attached to Asia. Some people think it should be one continent called Eurasia, seeing as there is no defined border between the two.

Antarctica is the continent where you would have to travel to reach the most southern point on Earth, which is the geographic South Pole.

The Kerguelen Islands are located in the southern Indian Ocean and are considered a part of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands, which is a territory of France. It is not on a continent but rather a remote group of islands.

The Mongols conquered most of Asia, spreading their empire across regions like China, Central Asia, and the Middle East.

Antarctica is south to all other continents. It is the only continent with no permanent inhabitants.

Asia

North America borders South America. Apart from that, it is surrounded by ocean.

Antarctica is the continent that lies completely within a polar zone. It is situated within the Antarctic Circle and experiences long periods of darkness in winter and continuous daylight in summer due to its extreme polar location.

Amerigo Vespucci, an Italian explorer and cartographer, is credited for proving that Columbus had discovered a new continent. He conducted several voyages to the Americas and mapped the coastlines, ultimately demonstrating that Columbus had not reached Asia as originally believed.

The theory is called continental drift, proposed by Alfred Wegener in the early 20th century. It suggests that at one point in Earth's history, all continents were connected into a single supercontinent called Pangaea. Over millions of years, the continents drifted apart to their current positions.

Cultural regions change faster than physical regions because culture is influenced by human behavior and societal norms, which can evolve rapidly based on factors such as technology, migration, and globalization. In contrast, physical regions are defined by natural features like landforms and climate, which tend to change at a slower pace.

South of Europe is Africa. The Mediterranean Sea is between them.

Europe is next to smallest by land area. The only smaller continent is Oceania.

Antarctica has the highest number of latitudes, as it spans from the South Pole at 90 degrees south to the Antarctic Circle at 66.33 degrees south.

Columbus's arrival led to the colonization of the Americas by European powers, resulting in the displacement and mistreatment of indigenous populations. It also facilitated the exchange of goods, animals, and diseases between the two hemispheres, a process known as the Columbian Exchange.

Oranges are believed to have originated in Southeast Asia, in regions such as China and India. They were later introduced to Europe and the Mediterranean region. Today, oranges are grown in many countries around the world with suitable climates for their cultivation.

There are six continents that lie partly or completely south of the equator: Africa, Antarctica, Australia, South America, Asia, and Oceania.

Mount Everest is located in Asia, on the border between Nepal and China. It is part of the Himalayan mountain range.

The Grampians are located in Australia, which is a continent in its own right.

Antarctica has virtually no precipitation of note. If we exclude it, Australia is the driest continent. While Northern Africa is very arid, the Congo River basin is one of the wettest large areas on Earth. Only the Amazon basin receives more rain.

Boston is located in Massachusetts, in the US. This is in North America.

Antarctica, Greenland- but the others don't all have 7, it's 7 worldwide
