Population:
583 million
Size: 3,997,929 sq. miles
Major Religions: Catholic,
Protestant, Orthodox, Anglican, and Muslim
Economy: From 1500-1940,
Europe was the world's dominant trading and industrial region.
During the last half of the 20th century, the North American
and then the east and southeast Asian economies moved ahead
of those of Europe. Gradually, the former communist states are
strengthening, and the European Union (EU) is growing to include
most European nations. Millions of people from poorer countries
in Eastern Europe, Africa and Asia are migrating to Western
Europe to enjoy the wealth and opportunities available in those
countries. |
