It's already done.

This plan would cost trillions, benefit no one and have devastating consequences for millions of people.

Oh so another ai company then

Europe and Asia are the same continental mass but Africa is not. Africa is moving independent to the Eurasian continent and is even slowly producing a new continent at the horn of Africa. So yes, it's true that Europe and Asia are the same continent but Africa is not. It is also slowly moving into Europe. That's why the Alps exist.

America is also the same landmass. Just has some water inbetween.

I support this plan because it would also separate russia from Europe and give us in Ukraine as well as Baltics a great defensible threshold.

In the same vein, does the Kiel canal mean the Denmark is an archipelago instead of a peninsula + islands?

And the Panama canal is when America became two continents? :D

Thus reaulting in Eurasia being the setting and rising land, which is fitting because the sun certainly does do both things there from what I hear (I've only been to North America according to the tectonicists in this thread)

c. 1300, from Latin Asia, from Greek Asia, speculated to be from Akkadian asu "to go out, to rise," in reference to the sun, thus "the land of the sunrise." Used by the early Greeks of what later was known as Asia Minor; by Pliny of the whole continent.

Whereas “East” just means “direction of the egg”

It's Ourasia, comrade

Some Russians? More like majority of them.

As a Russian, I'm always bewildered why everyone else seems to refer to Europe and Asia as separate continents. Like, y'all blind or something? Look at the map!

And if you think it's about geology or something, nuh-uh. It's just a random convention coming from ancient perceptions, and it is heavily wrong. Eurasia is a single continent, and always has been.

you mean north west asian? yea

Geologically speaking India and surroundings are also not Asia but a separate continent running into Asia creating the Himalayas

But europe is a continent.

Don't forget elevated east Asia. (The moon)

It's all Greek Roman to me.

Can be fixed w "northwest" and "southwest"

Asia 2

Asia is Northeast Africa, extended edition.

Europe is North Africa, extended edition.

It also leads me to count 4 continents: Africa (or Afrasia/Afro-Eurasia), America, Australia, Antarctica.

No, ur a sia

I thought the boundary was generally agreed upon as the Ural and Caucasus Mountains?

I'm pretty sure China calling itself "central county" probably plays some role as well.

I know the japanese and koreans are pretty pale but calling them demons is a bit much don't you think?

Yellow is also quite pale

always has been

And that point is obviously Mongolia

*throat singing intensifies*

Which will complicate things because there will be dozens of more continents.

yes the chilean continent

Not really, and even if it did it wouldn't separate europe from asia, but it would put Japan and part of Siberia in North America, cut Africa in two, cut India and Arabia out of Asia, and trim off bits of both Americas in California, Central America, and Venezuela.

No but I think it'd be really funny if we started doing that

The Southern boundary is the Mediterranean.

Then let's hear them.

which are?
