    There is no such thing as europe anyway. It’s just a racist concept the white have made up to distinguish themselves from yellow and brown people. How come the Ural is a continental boundary and the alps, the andes, the rockes aren’t? Bitch please

      Bit of an assumption.

      The earliest notions of Europe as a continent are from a time where your neighbors who speak a slightly different dialect are the worst scum imaginable. Racism didn’t even exist (since races did not exist in anyone’s mind), xenophobia against everyone who dared to live right next to you was where all discrimination was based on.

      We’re talking 600 BCE for the concept of Europe and Asia as separate geographical regions to emerge.
