This storybook provides an overview of Europe's geographical and cultural diversity. While geographically connected to Asia, Europe is often considered a separate entity, with the term "Eurasia" used to describe the combined landmass when needed. The continent is broadly divided into regions: Northern, Southern, Central, Eastern, and Western Europe, each hosting countries with varied landscapes and cultural elements. Russia uniquely spans Europe and Asia, making it the largest country globally. Vatican City is Europe's smallest nation, reflecting the vast differences in size and culture across the continent.
