- Asia is the
world's largest continent at 17,300,000 square miles (44,806,812
square kilometers). If you're considering Europe and Asia combined
as Eurasia, then it's the largest continent at 21 million square
miles (55 million km2).
- Asia is made up of
48 countries.
These countries are very different and their cultures have little in
common. Asia makes up nearly 1/3 of the Earth's land mass.
Asia is on the other side of the world from us.
- The land of Asia
goes as far north as the Arctic Circle. Parts of Russia are
very cold all year round. Throughout Asia the land has some of
the longest rivers and many mountain ranges. Asia has the
highest point on earth in the Himalayan Mountains and it is called
Mount Everest. In the western part of Asia is the Dead Sea
which is the lowest point on earth. The continent goes to the
Indian Ocean where it is warm and tropical. Many islands are
part of Asia and are in the Pacific Ocean.
- The 48 countries all
have very different cultures and beliefs. The land has many
different religions and languages.
