continent. Only Oceania has less
landmass. Europe extends from the
island nation of Iceland in the west to
the Ural Mountains of Russia in the
east. Europes northernmost point is
the Svalbard archipelago of Norway,
and it reaches as far south as the
islands of Greece and Malta.”

3.  “Europe can be
broadly divided into
three regions as shown
on the map left.
Europe can also be
divided according to
European Union
member states and
non-member states as
shown on the map
right.”
“Europe lies entirely in the Northern
hemisphere and has four distinct seasons:
- Spring - March, April, May
- Summer - June, July, August
- Autumn - September, October, November
- Winter - December, January, February”

4.  “For the most part Europe lies in the
northern temperate climate zone.
Much of far western Europe is
classified as a Temperate Oceanic
climate, while far southern Europe is
a Mediterranean climate in the south.
The climate is strongly conditioned
by the Gulf Stream, which keeps
mild air (for the latitude) over
Northwestern Europe in the winter
months, especially in Ireland, the UK
and coastal Norway. Whilst Western
Europe has an oceanic climate,
Eastern Europe has a drier,
continental climate. Parts of the
Central European plains have a
hybrid oceanic/continental climate.”

5.  “Europe is a unique continent,
which is not surrounded by water
from all directions, and has an
overland border with the
neighbouring Asia.
Physiographically, it occupies the
northwestern part of the large
landmass known as Eurasia and
surrounded from the north by the
Arctic Ocean, from the west by the
Atlantic Ocean, from the south by
the Mediterranean Sea, and from
the southeast by the Black Sea.”

6.  “Figures for the population of Europe
vary according to which definition of
European boundaries is used. The
population within the standard physical
geographical boundaries was 740 million
in 2010 according to the United Nations. In
2010 the population was 711 million, using
the definition that Europe's boundaries are
on the continental divides of the Caucasus
and Ural mountains and the Bosporous,
including the populated parts of countries
of Russia and of Turkey. Population
growth is comparatively slow, and median
age comparatively high in relation to the
world's other continents.”

7.  “The plant life of Europe is
characterised according to
climatic region. The deciduous
forest region has a wealth of
plant life and includes tall and
short trees, shrubs, small plant.
The coniferous forest region
contains trees such as pine, fir
and spruce. Due to the cold
during the winter months, only
short grasses and shrubs can
survive in the tundra region. The
grassland region is characterised
by large open areas of tall or
short grass.”

8. “Due to the density of
population in Europe there
are few areas of natural
habitat remaining and
many indigenous animals
are now extinct or in danger
of extinction. Brown bears
and wolves can be found in
the northern coniferous
forest regions. Deer, foxes,
hedgehogs, snakes and wild
cats can be found in the
deciduous forest regions.”
