I was taught in the second grade that there are seven continents and I still have them memorized and I can still see our adorable teacher teaching & chanting them with us rhythmically

North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, Antarctica

And there are five oceans:

Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Arctic, Antarctic

Well, it’s in Asia and Europe. Big country. If Siberia alone was a country, it would still be the biggest country in the world.

A country cannot be in/on two different continents. Pick one. It’s Asia. I’m telling you. Russia is in Asia.

Europe begins where the countries start getting comparatively tiny & all clustered together on the west side of that ginormous land mass.

A country cannot be in/on two different continents.

Says who?

Heck Australia is it’s own continent and also claims part of Antarctica as territory.
