I am saying, that out of the two people who were arguing about this, I was the one who said continent. The argument wasn't in this thread, it was somewhere else.

Please define continent.
Then, look at Europe and explain why Europe isn't part of the Asian Continent according to your definition.
Bang.

im going to say europe should be a country.
there is no divider to split europe and asia.
thus, in byfacto, it should be a country. well, not a country so to say, but it should be "western asia"
actually, i think at one point, it was being called eurasia or something of the sort

It can not be a country because then what would France, England, Germany, and spain be?
It is neither. It is a Federation of Collective Countries that Support the Furthering of the EURO. With side practices in hating Americans.
