			Europe, second smallest of the world's continents, composed of the 
			westward-projecting peninsulas of Eurasia (the great landmass that it shares with 
			Asia) and occupying nearly one-fifteenth of the world's total land area. It is 
			bordered on the north by the Arctic Ocean, on the west by the Atlantic Ocean, and 
			on the south (west to east) by the Mediterranean Sea, the Black Sea, the Kuma-Manych 
			Depression, and the Caspian Sea.  Find more facts at https://www.britannica.com/place/Europe.
