Hello everybody. As you may know, we have a long weekend for Queen Elizabeth the Second’s memorial day. Over this time period I have been studying some Geographical facts about Europe and Asia.
Here are some Geographical facts I have learnt about Asia.
- The Mongol Empire was the second largest empire in history. It stretched from Korea all the way to Poland. (Very Big).
- Most of Russia is in Asia, but most people want Russia to be fully European since that capital is in Europe.
- North Korea and South Korea is smaller than New Zealand. I know, crazy right!
- Borneo is the 3rd largest island in the world behind Greenland and New Guinea.
- Did you know that Asia is the largest continent Population wise and Area!
Now here is the Geographical facts I learnt about Europe.
- Europe is home to Sweden, and Sweden has the most islands in the world. Not even I knew that!
- Somehow Europe is the most peaceful continent. (I do not understand because of Ukraine and Russia, The Balkans and the Greece and Turkey argument.
- Europe is described as peninsulas of peninsulas.
- Did you know that Europe is homed to most Micro states. (Basically really small countries)
- There are ONLY 50 countries in Europe. I would have thought that there would have been more.
Well that is my blog for the day. I hope you have learnt many things today. Comment below 1 fact you learnt about each continent. Goodbye!
