What are the boundaries of Europe and why ? (answer in 100 words)
As we know that, Europe is the continent which entirely falls in the northern hemisphere and mostly in the Eastern hemisphere. Europe is the sixth largest continent of the world in terms of area and ranks 3rd in terms of population. The HDI of Europe is very high with 0.845. There are 51 independent countries in Europe. The most beautiful country in Europe is Austria. Europe is taken to be bounded by large bodies of water to the north, west and south; Europe's limits to the east and northeast are usually taken to be the Ural Mountains, the Ural River, and the Caspian Sea; to the southeast, the Caucasus Mountains, the Black Sea and the waterways connecting the Black Sea to the Caspian sea. In short Europe is the space between the Arctic Ocean in the north, the Atlantic Ocean in the west, the Mediterranean Sea in the south and the Ural mountains in the east.
Hope you got the answer.
