Wall Street Journal Europe
- Europe, one of five continents, situated in the hemisphere the North, bounded in the East by Asia, in the South by the Mediterranean Sea, on the West by the Atlantic Ocean and the sea of Norway, in the North by the ocean the Arctic. Europe, with Asia, is a part of the continental system of Eurasia. By agreement, the geographers consider that border between Asia and Europe corresponds to mountains Ural, in the river Ural up to the Caspian Sea and in the straits of Bosphorus by including a small part of Turkey and sometimes the Caucasus. This demarcation by natural barriers is arbitrary however partially. Islands or archipelagoes of the Atlantic Ocean are connected in Europe: Iceland, the Azores, the Canarian Islands or still Svalbard in the Arctic.
Very early, geographic sense(direction) and origin of the term Europe intrigued the historians. Greek mythology says to us that Europe was one of Océanides, or the girl of a legendary king of Phoenicia, loved by Zeus who removed it. Legend wants that his(her) brothers left in its search and based several cities. Hérodote, in the Histories, wrote in that case that Europe, been born in Asia, never went(surrendered) probably on the continent, that the Greeks du Ve century avenue. J.-C. already called Europe.
