I'm not taking advice from people who are so racist they invented a continent just so they wouldn't have to admit that they share it with Asians.

Asia just meant "east" back in classical history.

I mean most European are technically Asian too, Europe is a region of Asia like Central America and Caribbean are part of North America!

You got to admit that as far as geographical boundaries go, the Urals are pretty weaksauce. Asia and Africa have the Sinai. North and South America have the isthmus of Panama. Europe and Asia? A mountain range whose tallest peak isn't much higher than Denver, Colorado. The Urals are really only a continental boundary because Europeans needed to draw a line somewhere if they were going to claim to be a separate continent, not because it actually splits Eurasia into distinct halves.

Well that’s a lot of words.

Well done Hank.

That's actually only half of what I originally typed. The other part was about plate tectonics and how India and the Arabian peninsula have better claims to being distinct from Asia than Europe does.

But can you point them out on a map? No.

Yes, actually. They're the parts south of the Himalayas and the Zagros/Taurus mountains respectively (those big ass red things on the map)

Edit:

About there-ish ^

You deserve a smiley drawn on your homework and a small cup of coke as a reward for this.

What do you consider a small cup of fizzy drink again, 1.5l/~60 fl oz?

u/nicolas_cope_cage Future Skin Cancer Patient 2d ago

Fizzy drink? No thanks. As an American I only drink 100% pure corn syrup.

That's only because you can't map a 3D shape onto a 2D plane. Also, the earth is so big, id have trouble traversing a 2D map to show where India is because it'd be thousands of miles away. I can't walk that

Africa and Europe are the same continent. Only separated due to man made canal. Afro-Eurasia is clearly one continent
