Title. In my opinion the continent "Europe" is a psyop by the fascist imperialist nations in Western Eurasia. Should not be a continent, take away their certificate.

Also Arabia should be its own continent, CMV. I submit this map of tectonic plates as proof. They should get the European continental certification. Who is the manager of deciding stuff like this? I need to speak to them.

    There's just one continent, the human continent

      The best part of this reformed continental projection is it grants the Casus Belli Asiatic states need to reclaim the western half of their continent.

    On one hand Asians don't want to be on the same continent as the filthy euros, on the other hand the euros clearly don't deserve their own continent

      The point is so Europeans can claim they're different from Eurasians.

      Geologically they refer to the largest "chunks" of contiguous land mass, which is why most of the "continents" follow the lines of the tectonic plates. Except Europe, because it's made up.

      Ultimately if we want a definition that will hold for the rest of Earth’s existence, I don’t think there’s really any great way to do it.

      This is only true if you assume continental lines cannot and should not be changed again. We added a 13th zodiac sign and civilization didn't collapse, I think we can handle updating continental projections to reflect geological changes every 25 years or so. :)

            Love how the traits suggested by this starsign are affinity with snakes and immunity from poison rather than like aquarius (being crazy) or virgo (being rude), its a lot more RPGish

              TBH it's all the d&d alignment chart as far as I'm concerned, only reason I know anything about it is astrology/tarot are my go-to-grifts to get free drinks at bars.

                They're both pretty cool aesthetically (tarot and astrology) how it all works and the characters look and all that.

                  Tarot can also be used as an interesting psycho-analytical tool, using the cards to focus on specific emotions, events, expressions, etc. to "sort" through your thoughts. That's how I was originally introduced to them.

      They are on continental probation until they can get their shit together; they can have their own continent when they prove to me they are responsible enough to have one.

      In the future we ship all the anglo-americans to Siberia and give continental North America back to the first nations.

      Counterpoint: "continents" were created by the greeks to delineate territory to the east and west of the Aegean Sea and is therefore an arbitrary geological term and because it is an arbitrary distinction I can call whatever the fuck I want a continent; including Arabia. Additionally, Arabia lies neither directly east or directly west OR directly to the south of the Aegean Sea (Asia, Europe, & Africa respectively) but to the south-east! Meaning it should require a distinct continental title according to this convention.

      Checkmate Europeans.

          All right, I concede on this one. Also TIL the distinction between Egypt and Libya could be attributed to the greeks being unable to decide whether or not the Nile river split the whole world in half.
