L’Europe doit assumer son histoire héroïque : les leçons de Peter Sloterdijk
Europe is a continent in the Northern Hemisphere of the Earth, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Mediterranean Sea to the south, and Asia to the east, with an area of about 3,930,000 sq mi (10,180,000 sq km).
East of the Vistula River, Europe’s expansive lowlands have something of the scale and character of those of northern Asia. The continent also comprises numerous islands, some—notably the Faroes and Iceland —located at a distance from the mainland.
Europe is a continent forming the westernmost part of the land mass of Eurasia and comprised of 49 sovereign states. Its name may come from the Greek myth of Europa, but human habitation of the region predates that tale, going back over 150,000 years.
Europe is one of Earth's six continents and the fifth largest by area. It is bordered to the north by the Arctic Ocean, to the south by the Mediterranean Sea, the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, to the east by the Ural Mountains, and to the west by the Atlantic Ocean.
Europe is an incredibly diverse place, no matter how you look at it. Let’s take a look at what Europe “is”: While the European continent stretches from the Atlantic to the Ural Mountains and Arctic to the Mediterranean, this covers a diverse set of biomes, from grasslands to high mountain ranges.
